I-Search Topic
When browsing the list of topics one that piqued my interest was literacy in popular culture. I think that an interesting focus within this topic would be the new generation of children's books that have developed into giant multimedia money making machines. No longer is a book series like Harry Potter or Twilight just a book series. They are books, movies, lunch boxes, cartoons, television specials, blogs, video games... Has this recent crazy and marketing of books increased the level of interest children have in book? Is there a downside?

And..it is so interesting that people have SUCH visceral assumptions and thoughts on this! It is so much more than a "text."
