BLOG 1 (quarter 3)

I read a book called Life As We Knew It, by Susan Beth Pfeffer. This is a fictional book about the moon coming closer to the earth, causing a huge natural disaster. The main character lives in a town, but all over the world, the schools get closed, supermarkets run out of food, and everyone loses contact. By the end of the book, her family is barely surviving, and the whole town is mostly dead. I thought this was actually a scary book to read, because with all the gloabal warming, environmental issues going on, something like this could possibly happen to us. Of course this wasn't a true story, but it was written so realisticly, it made me really aware of the recent environmental issues.
