Along the same lines, I loved the moments when the narrative voice cut in and gives commentary on the action. and helped to address the moral qualms that come up when you're with Brer Rabbit and he acts badly. I really appreciated Julius Lester's introduction, which laid out a context for the Trickster in general and Brer Rabbit in particular.

Of course I needed to read them for myself. ![]() The teacher loved them - despite the last-minute skipping of certain sections or stories - and plans to read them again next year. They were a huge success, but required some improvisation and quick thinking on the teacher's part, as they're hilarious but not entirely appropriate for a second-grade clasroom. I suggested this version because even though I hadn't read them myself, I trust Julius Lester to retell the stories with humor and without a racist lens. I offered the Julius Lester version of the Uncle Remus tales to a second grade teacher as an alternative to the Joel Chandler version that she'd been reading to her class for years. ![]() ![]() ![]() Really promptly, imperial home life modifications.

Written the simplest way you can imagine, this very short story written by Isaac Asimov is. Review 2: It has been a while since I read something that made me think so deeply about life, religion and God. He penned numerous short stories, among them Nightfall, which in 1964 was voted by the Science Fiction Writers of America the best short science fiction story. The final sentence left me slightly confused, however, as I debated on whether it was hinting towards the religious significance of that exclamation. The sense of powerlessness is repeated in each iteration of the question, leaving the readers with building suspense as the end drew near. It is a quick read and very thought-provoking, which surprised me considering it had science-fiction elements that are still relevant in the genre today. The story begins with the omniscient narrator informing the readers that the last question was first raised, half-jokingly, on May 21, 1961, at a time when humanity has just succeeded in a technological development that will permanently change the future of the planet.
