Hello, my name is Raven Williams and I am a student at the University of South Alabama. I am currently taking a class called EDM 310 that led me to your blog. I really love the topic that you chose! Mermaids are one of the world's greatest mysteries. I personally believe that mermaids exist. You did a really great job explaining why you believe in mermaids. The facts about the ocean and marine life works really well to support your belief. Your blog was very thoughtful and interesting. I look forward to reading more from you in the future! Here is the link to my blog if you would like to see it!

Hello Michael. My name is Raven Williams and I am a student at the University of South Alabama. I really enjoyed reading your blog! I have never read the book, but it sounds like you really learned a lot from this experience. I also agree that people sometimes underestimate people in wheelchairs.

Raven, I like how you separated the summary and your personal opinion. I also liked how you gave links and used pictures. Although, the last picture was good, I feel like it was a little bit blurry! Keep up the good work:)
