Earth Day is now a global event each year where people around the world take part in a day of political and civic action to protect the environment, animals and the planet that we live on. People march, sign petitions, meet with their elected officials, plant trees, clean up their towns and roads, and waterways. Corporations and governments use it to make pledges and announce sustainability measures.

How to be well: the six keys to a happy and healthy life is a guide to living up to our full potential. The book encourages us to take a look at how modern life effects us, and shows us how we can better handle those internal and external stressors. There are six pillars that we are asked to look at to improve our health: eat, sleep, move, protect, unwind and connect. Each section delves deep to help us improve our mental and physical selves.
It’s the age of the true crime fan! Everywhere you look, there’s a new documentary, podcast, or book about true crime. Internet communities have sprung up to try solving famous unsolved crimes themselves, or just to discuss infamous cases like the Black Dahlia murder or the Zodiac Killer. And there’s plenty to talk about. As forensic science continues to evolve and advance, more and more cold cases are being solved. Genealogy and DNA tests and other methods have brought about the arrests of multiple killers, including the infamous Golden State Killer just last year.

This book is written about a High School located in Southeast Washington, District of Columbia. It is located in in Ward 8. The school is named after Dr Frank Washington Ballou. This book gave the students a desire to keep the future alive, to express their feelings and to have confident in themselves. Thanks goes to the Principal, Teachers and Students. I would recommend this book to families with Teens, Young Adults and Adults
