Literature of Language Arts: Second Course (California Edition)
by Holt Rinehart WinstonThis is a book with a big idea--that you are going to learn a lot about your language. This book came together because of the efforts of lots of people--writers, editors, artists, teachers, and even students like you. The chapters in Part 1 begin with an essay that explains the key standards you'll be mastering in the chapter. Then you'll read several literary selections. Following almost every literary selection, you will find some interesting readings, called informational texts. These might be newspaper or magazine articles, Web pages, instructional manuals, interviews, signs, maps, or other documents. All of these informational texts relate to the piece of literature. For example, after the story "In Trouble," about Gary Paulsen's experiences with sled dogs, you'll find an informational article about some of the breeds of dogs used to pull sleds. Along the way you'll find a lot of help in acquiring new words.

The Iliad: Translated By Ian Johnston
by Homer Ian JohnstonHomer's Iliad, the oldest and greatest epic poem in our culture, was composed in the eighth century BC. It became the single most important literary resource in ancient Greek culture, and has exercised a decisive influence on Western culture an influence which continues to this day. The poem tells the story of a quarrel between Achilles, the greatest of the Achaean warriors in the Greek expedition against Troy, and Agamemnon, the commander of the expedition an argument which causes Achilles to withdraw from the fighting. The battles continue without him, and the ironic unfolding of events eventually leads him to rejoin the war and to seek out the great Trojan warrior Hector for a climactic single combat. The Iliad is our most important war poem. It constantly forces us to confront what goes on in battle, how men sustain themselves amid the horrors of the killing zone, and how the activity is simultaneous intensely and brutally destructive and also, by one of the strangest of all of life's ironies, intensely creative. Ian Johnston's abridged version of Homer's great poem is based upon his acclaimed translation of the complete epic (also published by Richer Resources Publications). The abridged text is approximately one third of the original and presents a coherent narrative poem in which every line is taken from Homer's text, with occasional short summaries to keep the story coherent. This shortened version is an ideal entry into Homer's vision of the world for those who are not yet ready or do not have the time to tackle the full poem. The text is accompanied by a few explanatory footnotes, a glossary of names, and a map indicating the origin of many of the major characters.
The Odyssey Abridged (Third Edition)
by Homer Ian JohnstonThis abridged text of Homer's Odyssey has been prepared by Ian Johnston from his translation of the full text which is about one third the length of the original.
October Sky
by Homer H. HickamThe true story, originally published as Rocket Boys, that inspired the Universal Pictures film. It was 1957, the year Sputnik raced across the Appalachian sky, and the small town of Coalwood, West Virginia, was slowly dying. Faced with an uncertain future, Homer Hickam nurtured a dream: to send rockets into outer space. The introspective son of the mine's superintendent and a mother determined to get him out of Coalwood forever, Homer fell in with a group of misfits who learned not only how to turn scraps of metal into sophisticated rockets but how to sustain their hope in a town that swallowed its men alive. As the boys began to light up the tarry skies with their flaming projectiles and dreams of glory, Coalwood, and the Hickams, would never be the same.
