Ellen Klages:Belmont

On September 30th, 2009 at about 7:05 pm we left to see Ellen Klages (the author of The Green Glass Sea and White Sands, Red Menace) who was in the Belmont Library from 7 pm to 8 pm. The Belmont Library is located on 1100 Alameda de las Pulgas(Directions:Take US-101, Ralston Avenue/Marine Parkway exit, left on Ralston Avenue, left on Alameda de las Pulgas). I wrote a book review (photos 2, 3 and 4) for The Green Glass Sea and gave it to Ms. Klages. Here is my book review (Side 1): Book Review

The Green Glass Sea

This book (containing a mix of fiction and non-fiction) is an interesting book about the the Manhattan Project, the making of the atomic bomb, and how people lived in Los Alamos from 1943 to 1945. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Ms. Klages gave me a postcard (photos 5 and 6). Ms. Klages showed me her sample of trinitite (the metal that the atomic bomb turns quartz into). The first picture is trinitite. I read about trinitite in "The Story of Science" by Joy Hakim, and then I got to see it for real!
