WEEKLY REVIEW 6/7 - 6/11


Big Girl finished up her American Literature this week, as far as we are going with it. The more modern stuff can wait till she is an adult, if ever. Most of it is just junk. We will be starting with British Literature week after next. There is a lot more good literature there, as Britain is obviously a lot older than America. :-)
