Reading Challenge of the Month- September- Learn something new!

[Cheryl]

Ok, for this month we are learning something new.

For you non-fiction readers it could be a self-help book, a bible study, history, art, cooking book, arts and crafts, home dec, etc.

For fiction readers- I'll allow any book where your character learns something new- could be a trade, something about themselves, about God. I'll let your creativity take flight on this one.

[Kim]

I decided to read new-to-you authors this month — aiming for 5-6

#1 Learned about Cajuns (French Canadians) in Louisiana just after WWII.

#2 Learned about this ship voyage that didn't go according to plan.

#3 I don't recall learning before about using ships as a part of the Civil War. I definitely don't think I'd heart about Confederates putting rocks in the water to cause problems for Union ships.

1.The Cajuns: Americanization of a People by Shane K. Bernard after reading Under the Bayou Moon and being shocked by some of what I read I wanted to learn more about Cajuns or Acadians. And I did learn that some of what happened in Under a Bayou Moon did indeed happen.

#4

[Carissa]

Told by the Marines who were in the Pacific through I studied WWII in my history classes in high school and college we never studied Pacific Theater and as the granddaughter of a Navy sailor and the daughter of a Marine I've always been interested in Navy and Marine history and decided it was time to learn about the role the Marines played in WWII.

Carolyn, it was a pretty heart-wrenching book, but I thought it was well-written. There were several character viewpoints throughout, which gave different perspectives of events during that time.

I did a dismal job on this challenge last month! Usually, I read a lot of non-fiction, but in September I was so busy WRITING non-fiction, LOL, that I didn't have time to READ non-fiction! However, I did finish two children's non-fiction books:
1)
2)

I also read a book where the main characters learn about a FICTIONAL world:
3)
