I read Alexa's booklet, hers was titled "Love in the Renaissance," it was about how the lifestyle for African-Americans changed and was molded around some big names in music at that time. The book used the old slang in a way that even though I didn't know what all the words meant originally, I could understand what she meant by the way she used the words. The story was interesting, but at the same time very informational and taught me a lot just through the story. The illustrations were simple, but got the point across and were effective. Overall good book and I enjoyed reading it.
Abbie wrote her book on prohibition. Her cover art was very good, and all of the other illustrations throughout the book really help tie the text together. There wasn't much writing in the book, but I didn't mind it because everything said was very informational.
