The learning process in terms of Microsoft, can be very difficult, and challenging at times. In comparison to the step-by-step process, of each individual lesson, Ribbon Hero created an ultimately more fun way of learning. You might get a bit tired going through every single lesson, and no fun would be inquired within. Children might find enjoyment in Ribbon Hero, more so than Microsoft lessons. In my own opinion, I would definitely prefer Ribbon Hero over Microsoft lessons. Taking it step-by-step can be a little repetitive sometimes, as the person teaching the lesson might continue to repeat the same thing over and over again. In Ribbon Hero, however, they had a theme, and a story line plot to go along with the game. Ribbon Hero also introduces you to different types of Microsoft Office, so you can have a variety of things to choose from. Microsoft PowerPoint, Word, and Excel are all included. 
          The Microsoft Office videos may go into the depth of each lesson, but its not as challenging as Ribbon Hero, In Ribbon Hero, it requires you to use your brain, and try to concentrate on what your doing. There are hints, but you shouldn't use them if you want the best of scores. 

The Harry Potter book series has been out since I was a child. It grew to be very famous, and had lots of views, and very nice comments. the author, J.K. Rowling, has been credited and praised for her intelligible book series. The plot line varies throughout each book. The first one starts out in the view of young Harry Potter who lives with his aunt and uncle, ever since his parent's deaths. Harry lives in a tiny storage room under the stair case, and is treated very poorly. Just at age eleven, he receives an invitation to the wizarding school of Hogwarts. Without much experience, Harry takes a tour around the school, finding new things. Finally, it is time to find which house you belong to. There are four major houses; Slytherin, Griffindor, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw. 

Out of the many books that I have gone through in the past month, Sing Me To Sleep has to be the best one. The plot of the story, is basically about a girl who had been bullied throughout her life. She didn't really have many friends, nor a stable social life. She found it difficult to talk to others/ The nickname she was given by others was "the beast." No one befriended her, or gave her a chance. One day, auditions were going out for choir. She went to the try outs, and soon everyone was simply amazed. Her voice was a crisp clean sound, that no one else could compete with. Since her reputation was "the beast," no one knew her voice, until it was heard by all. Coming onto the choir was quiet a shock for her. She quickly became friends with a prep, addressed by the name Meadow. Meadow gave the main girl a new look, new clothes, and took away her glasses. She was now flawless.
             The school's choir team was simply so good, that they made it to the finals. In the process she learns a devastating tragedy, as well as  a friend. Her mother had another miscarriage, but she meets a boy, who seems nice enough to her. The choir finals take place in Sweden. After the scaring finals, the main girl finds that the boy, Derek, has an illness that is incurable unless immediate action is taken upon them, but it is simply to late for Derek. The doctors try every thing they can, but Derek passes away. This story is sure to bring tears to the reader, but in a mellow type of way.
