The Nonfiction book, Google It, by Anna Crowley Redding introduces the history of Google. It describes how the founders of Google, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who were students at Stanford University, subversion the world.  Everything begins with an ordinary homework assignment. Larry was focusing on the World Wide Web for his doctoral thesis, and that led to the birth of BackRub, later known as Google. Then, Google improves and develops at a fast rate. In conclusion, it became a product that changed the world by making information organized, accessible, and useful.

On day 11, I learned in class when to reread and when to research. I focused on Google X on my notebook page because I found it interesting. I looked in the text from my book and went online to find additional information.

As you can see, I created a “Larry page” for Larry Page. This is a page that introduces Google’s founder Larry Page, and it also shows his character traits using text evidence.

A theme I came up with is: Persistence may not necessarily lead to success, however; giving up will definitely not lead to success. Here are some of my ideas.

One of the most important central ideas of Google It is: that Google is an epoch-making product. To show my thinking, I used multiple pieces of evidence to prove two small central ideas, which are: Google satisfies human needs, and Google solves global issues. I tied these two ideas together and saw how important Google is. Then, I came up with the big central idea. See my thoughts above!

This journey of visiting my notebook ends here. Thank you very much for reading my blog post and paying attention to my notebook page. I really recommend reading Google It by Anna Crowley Redding. It is a wonderful book and it includes numerous facts about Google that you don’t know. Also, remember that if you want to use Google, you can always search on Google Chrome for Google. Ha Ha.
