Answer to Question 1

ANSWER:
Chapter books (books that are created especially for those readers who are moving toward being able to read and comprehend increasingly complex texts), series books (same characters in varying situations across many different books), novels in verse (books in poetry form), graphic novels (novels with graphics that are a significant part of the storytelling).

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER:
In the early twentieth century, adventure stories for boys and home stories for girls continued, giving way in the middle of the century to a new realism in books for young readers. Social concerns such as violence, sex, drugs, and difficult life decisions became literary issues in the mid to later half of the century. Books that embrace diversity are also more common.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
