New non fiction


There are 4 New nonfiction books in the library:
2009 World Almanac, with over 1000 pages of interesting facts and figures from 2008 plus information for 2009 (tide charts, etc.). From Astronomy to Government, International history to
budget statistics, this book is full of information for inquiring minds.

Loving Through Bars in a book about the children of those incarcerated and the effect jail time has on the family. A good read for someone living near a prison like we do.

English Grammar for Students of French by Jacqueline Morton will help those CR students taking French in the upcoming semester.

Finally, The United States Constitution: A Graphic Adaptation by Jonathan Hennessey could be called fiction in some minds, it is mostly based on fact. The Founding Facts. This book is full of comic book style drawings depicting the Revolutionary War and the Founding of the United States Governement. It also describes the amendments to the constitution and includes application of the amendments to actual court cases. Great for students who want to understand the constitutions and its ramifications in their lives but who don't do too well with eighteenth century script.
