Book update before Boston

“ticker” – great book about the development of the artificial heart – very recommendable

“sharp” – book about 10 influential women in the 20th century – all writers – they led sad lives

“sidetracked” – great YA book i now have in the classroom about xc and 7th grade – really enjoyed the book

“why baseball matters” – i mean, as if there was any doubt:) but the author makes a good case – and makes it a relevant book by discussing how current tech trends are altering perceptions about the game

“poverty creek journal” – great book about a year – and running – and learning to find wisdom from others
