The AP English Language and Composition course suggests a strong emphasis on nonfictional texts. Nonfiction includes the following genres: autobiography, biography, memoir, and all other accounts that are true. Because most of the selections that you are required to read during the school year are fictional novels, I am asking you to read and review the nonfiction work, Iron Heart: The True Story of How I Came Back from the Dead. We will be referring to this novel throughout first quarter; you will also be tested on the novel within the first week of school.
Assignment: Read and annotate Iron Heart, and then complete the class assignment (the regular junior assignment) AND a book review (instructions to follow). When you return from summer break, you will be tested on the novel. Therefore, this assignment should be submitted by the first day of class.
