=American Author Project=

Getting Started:
The Author Project involves reading, researching, writing, and sharing about the life and work of an American author. This project will begin in February and will culminate in a final product to be completed in May. The aim of the project is to research the life and analyze the works of an American author of your choice using the Internet as well as other library sources and to create a well-written multi-genre research project.
