Lone Ranger and Tonto / Tortilla Curtain

The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven: I liked how the presenters involved their personal opinions and relationships to the story. The symbolic analyses were insightful and engaging, and the presentation made good use of quotes and incorporated excellent choices of videos. It made me want to read this book! There are not many things that make me want to read a book.

The Tortilla Curtain: The use of questions to the class kept the presentation interesting and interactive. The structure was explicit and well-organized; it was clear for me to see what was happening and what was going to happen next. I especially appreciated the comparison to The Glass Castle and Detroit. Overall, this was a thorough job and shows significant effort.
