Lesson 6 -- EBooks on EbscoHost (formerly NetLibrary)

I decided to do a search on South Dakota.  I narrowed the search to South Dakota History and found 5 results.  I looked at the book,  Bachelor Bess The Homesteading Letters.  My great grandparents moved to South Dakota in the late 1890’s.  I think this book and others that I see would help me realize what life was like during that time.  Another book is After the West was Won by Paula Nelson which describes a period in South Dakota from 1900-1917.  As I reviewed my researching I realized that topic of South Dakota can be broken down into different categories and the categories can also be broken down.

I did a search for fairy tales.  There was a list of the following books with colors:  The Violet Fairy Book, The Blue Fairy Book, The Blue Book, The Yellow Fairy Book and the Red Fairy Book.  Each of these were written by Andrew Lang.  It was great to see the actual cover of the book and the colors. It appears you could find quite a few old fairy tales to read in these books!  No wonder the grandmother described in the search could recall these books. 

The only negative thing about the EBooks is that I find I have to zoom in on the pages and make the print bigger.  If I don’t, the small print seems I strain my eyes.
