**Honors English II**
This has been a beautiful summer week and I hope that you are enjoying it! I stopped at Horizon Books last night and it appears that many of you have begun reading Ernest Gaines novel "A Lesson Before Dying". There were not any books on their shelves, nor on the shelves at The Book Stop, so I am taking that to mean that engaged reading is happening! I haven't stopped yet at McLean & Eakin Booksellers, but I'm sure all stores would be willing to order it for you. I know Horizons is ordering additional copies. I don't want anyone to miss out on this engaging text. I am reading "What is the What". So far it is terrific!  Have any of you read this or know about the Lost Boys of Sudan? Enjoy the wonderful weather! Mrs. Stasha Simon 06-28-08
