W 4/27: Blog Post #1

Now that we have read the first part of The First Part Last, here is your first blog assignment:
Click comment below and write your response.

1. Write a question about the book so far.  What do you want to know more about?  The question might start with:

  • I wonder...
  • What if... 
  • Who is... 
  • What happened...
2. Read the following quote from the book:

"I figure if the world were really right, humans would live life backward and do the first part last.  They'd be all knowing in the beginning and innocent in the end" (Johnson 4).

Now, respond.  Do you think this would be better than the way things are now?  Why or why not?

(Your response should be 3-5 COMPLETE sentences)
