Discusses the benefits of fiction

Reference no: EM133321468

Imagine you are a grade twelve student at Fox Field High School. You write a blog or online journal that is popular with your classmates. You have learned that the Fox Field Public Library has started a reading club for teenagers that will start meeting in the new year. Write blog entry which encourages students to join the club.

Your posting may mention some of the ideas about stories discussed in the TED talk "The Politics of Fiction," but this is not necessary.

Refer to an article or essay that discusses the benefits of fiction that was not studied in class. Online articles from general interest magazines or newspapers such as The Globe and Mail, National Post, The New York Times, etc....are fine.

You must refer to "The Last Night of the World," "The Juniper Tree" or "The Happy Prince" and at least one other story. (This can be something you studied in another class or read on your own, but it has to be a printed story, novel, play or narrative poem. Also, it must be different than the story you referred to in the formal email assignment.)
