She gives us examples from literature and her childhood. She fondly remembers the summers of her childhood, full of "looking into the middle distance" and "staring at the tedious blue sky." Then she describes how different summer is for kids these days, making the claim that "our children are as over scheduled as we are, and that is saying something." Quindlen later supports her opinion that kids these days have less downtime than kids in the past by referring to a study from the University of Michigan, which says that "in the last 20 years American kids have lost about four unstructured hours a week." Quindlen goes on to claim that the over scheduling of kids is the result of the over scheduling of parents. Again, she supports her claim by citing the story of presidential aide Karen Hughes, who reporters celebrated for her practice of eating one meal a week with her son. By using evidence and supporting her claims, Quindlen effectively argues that kids these days are losing valuable downtime and carefree summers as a result of the busy lives of their parents.

Write a blog about a book that you have read recently.
solong [7]

Answer:

I recently read <em>Partly Cloudy</em> by Tanita S. Davis. It is a great book, and I chose it at the local library. The reason I chose it was because the elements and back of the book were about a black girl and the challenges she faces at school. The book follows a girl called Madelyn and her making new friends and microaggression and racist situations and incidents at school and home. Plus, smoke, fire, and other natural menaces threaten her house, her Mom, and her school and friends.

I liked the parts about Madelyn losing and gaining one of her friends due to past bullying and minor Negrophobia reasons as well. I also liked the parts where she moves into Papa Lobo's house and meets Jean.
