the hunger games, written by  suzanne collins, is fiction in the young adult genre, which is not my age group, but i found myself unable to put it down. its combination of nerve-racking tension, thrilling action, and engaging love story kept me up until the wee hours. i was surprised at how completely engrossing the plot was. like  brave new world, this story is set in a future where the government oppresses its people, but the book also borrows ideas from the greek myth of theseus and the minotaur.

divided into 12 districts, ruled by an oppressive government located at the  capitol. katniss everdeen, a 16-year-old girl from district 12, takes her younger sister’s place as one of 24 “tributes” selected every year to participate in the hunger games at the capitol.

while i found this book absolutely enthralling, i was surprised it was aimed at an audience of young adults. it seems extremely intense for anyone younger than 16 or 17. for example, there is a scene where one young tribute is slowly eaten alive by wolf-like creatures all night long, and katniss has to finally throw a weapon at him to end his misery. i found this a little too disturbing when i considered the age of the character.

the intensity of the action was something one would find in a more mature book, but the age of the characters and the simplicity of the prose were aimed at a much younger audience. in addition, this book was written in present tense, which i found annoying, but that’s more of a personal preference than a stylistic fault. it was also edited somewhat poorly, but that rarely distracted from the plot. for example, the author often spoke in sentence fragments to describe how katniss felt, which might have been an attempt to reflect on her thought process, but i found it disorienting to read a lot of really short sentences all together. it would have been better to vary the sentence length on occasion, but the story was still coherently.

overall,  the hunger games  was an excellent, enthralling read that i highly recommend. if it was more clearly marked for older teens, it would have been better, but it was a fantastic book with a wonderfully creative plot.

yes it did. that's been proven time and again. i used to be an elementary school teacher myself, and i worked with thousands of kids with cerebral palsy across the nation and in canada. what i observed was that children with dyslexia were struggling to read and learn. it was a serious issue that impacted teachers all over the country, but it was so often ignored and denied.

and children with disabilities – children who have learning disabilities – they got to spend a lot of time reading in a classroom.

i could not believe there was never any kind of conversation in my school about how to provide more opportunities for students with disabilities. the education system was still looking for ways to keep the pressure on children's teachers to improve their grades, that they have to be teachers who were in the grade for eight years, and they weren't even being evaluated.

so why weren't parents or guardians concerned about whether their kids were being by this system, if they could not see their kids in a classroom that they could improve? why couldn't you say, "i think you need to improve your reading skills," right? and they certainly believed it when i pointed it out to them. it doesn't matter if you said, "you need to go to an optometry class, or to a teacher's camp
