Week 5

This week, Alex isn't here so once again, we can't make any solid decisions or anything. Not that I think we were close to being on verge of our great idea. I went on the website 'www.dummies.com' and it said, "Pay close attention to common, everyday experiences, whether at home or at work. What may seem drab or ordinary on the surface might actually be a book in disguise." So that makes me feel like we're on the right track. But how can we interpret the things children like into a book? How can we appeal to kids? And not only that, but what topic would we enjoy putting a year's worth of work into? I kind of like the idea of there being a little boy watching tv, and then his mom comes into the room and tells him to stop and to do something besides watching tv all day. And then maybe the kid goes into different rooms of the house and there's different worlds that he's imagining in each room. Maybe he goes in and saves the day in each different room. I don't know, I'll run it by my group next week if Alex is here.
