goodbye/fun facts....national book week...Children’s books as we know them today have been around since the 18th century, with the earliest of the genre being educational books, books on conduct, and simple A.B.Cs.  the most celebrated of the pioneers in children’s literature is John Newbery, whose first book for the entertainment of children was “A Little Pretty Pocket-Book,” which is widely considered to be the first modern children’s book....which is why the authors of "the most distinguished contributions to American literature for children" can win The Newbery Award. Children have relatively short attention spans, and often do not enjoy reading. Children's Book Week presents a fun opportunity to get kids excited about books. A child who loves reading will have an enquiring mind, a vivid imagination, and great problem-solving skills.

goodbye/fun facts....national zipper day...The first attempt at creating the zipper came from the inventor of the sewing machine. In 1851, Elias Howe received a patent for the “Automatic, Continuous Clothing Closure.” Even though Howe patented his invention... never marketed it.  Forty-two years later, Whitcomb Judson began selling the “Clasp Locker.” Similar to Elias Howe’s patent, this device served as a more complicated hook-and-eye shoe fastener. Judson started the Universal Fastener Company...In 1906, he hired Gideon Sundback, a Swedish-American electrical engineer who created and was granted a patent for the modern zipper, known then as the "Separable Fastener....and we call it a zipper because in 1923 b.f. goodrich used Gideon Sundbäck's fastener on a new type of rubber boots and referred to it as the zipper, and the name stuck.

Fast forward to 1990, when scientists from around the world came together to begin mapping the human genome...and while DNA evidence isn't typically the number one resource used for solving crimes, it has been instrumental in both exonerating or confirming individuals.
