5 6 Talk About It Monster of a Tale Often called the world s first science fiction novel, Frankenstein; or, the Modern Prometheus was first published 200 years ago in Mary Shelley was just 18 years old when she began crafting her tale about a scientist who creates a monster. The book was an instant best-seller and the author s most famous work. Because of Books During the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia in 1876, 103 librarians gathered for a convention at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania. All those who signed the register became charter members of the American Library Association, making Oct. 6 the birthday of the ALA as well as American Libraries Day. Another Fall Fruit While pumpkins are plentiful this time of year, there s another orange fall fruit, the persimmon. Native to Asia, persimmons were introduced to the U.S. in the late 19th century. The two most common varieties are the fuyu, which looks like a squat tomato, and the hachiya, which is acorn-shaped. Both can be eaten fresh or cooked into sweet and savory recipes. Play With Clay Whether molding simple shapes or creating an elaborate sculpture, crafting with clay can lift your mood and increase motivation. Researchers say ceramics is an effective form of art therapy due to the physical sensation of working the clay and transforming it into something beautiful. Stay Healthy All Season As much as possible, avoid coughers and sneezers. Most germs are spread by droplets in the air. During cold and flu season, try to stay at least 3 feet away from people who are ill. Use Your Own Pen One way to reduce your risk of catching contagious viruses is to carry your own pen. When signing a credit card receipt or filling out forms at a doctor s office, avoid using the shared pen that s provided, since it s likely handled by many people.

7 Masters of Mystery A diligent detective, several suspects, a sprinkling of clues, and a plot full of twists and turns are the classic elements of a mystery.

6 7 Masters of Mystery A diligent detective, several suspects, a sprinkling of clues, and a plot full of twists and turns are the classic elements of a mystery. Put your sleuthing skills to work in the stories of these masters of the whodunit: Edgar Allan Poe. Called the father of the modern detective story, Poe s 1841 tale The Murders in the Rue Morgue set the scene for future fictional detectives. The Edgar Awards, presented annually to top mystery writers, are named after him. Arthur Conan Doyle. The creator of Sherlock Holmes wrote four novels and more than 50 short stories about the famous detective known for his keen skills of observation and deduction. The iconic character has been portrayed in countless film and TV adaptations. Agatha Christie. One of the bestselling writers of all time, Christie penned 66 mystery novels, many of them featuring the memorable sleuths Miss Marple and Hercule Poirot. And Then There Were None is considered her masterpiece. Dashiell Hammett. His experience as an investigator with the Pinkerton National Detective Agency inspired Hammett s books, which include The Maltese Falcon and The Thin Man. Sue Grafton. Kinsey Millhone is the tough female private eye created by Grafton, whose series of alphabetically titled novels debuted in 1982 with A Is for Alibi. Barbara Neely. Blanche White, an African-American housekeeper and amateur sleuth, is the heroine in Neely s mystery series, beginning with 1992 s award-winning Blanche on the Lam. Preserving the Redwoods Northern California s coast is home to the world s tallest trees, the towering redwoods. To protect these majestic wonders, Redwood National Park was dedicated Oct. 2, Author John Steinbeck called the redwoods ambassadors from another time. They flourished in the region for millions of years until they began to be logged as Americans settled the West in the 1800s. Local efforts to save the redwood groves from being axed started in the early 1900s and led to the creation of three state parks. By the time the federal government purchased the bordering forests to create Redwood National Park, 90 percent of the giant trees had been cut down. Spanning nearly 132,000 acres, the park contains prairies, woodlands, rivers and nearly 40 miles of Pacific coastline, but the stunning redwoods are its star attraction. The area s mild temperatures, abundant rainfall and rich soil contribute to the trees massive heights of 300 feet or more. Many of the redwoods are 500 to 700 years old. The park is home to diverse species of animals, including elk, black bears, bald eagles, coyotes and mountain lions. Visitors exploring the beach trails can spot sea lions, harbor seals, porpoises and whales. Fall Fun Bobbing for Apples Part of the traditional fun at fall festivals and parties, bobbing for apples began as a courting game in Europe centuries ago. Apples were marked with names of potential suitors, then placed in a barrel of water. As the fruit floated, a young woman would try to catch an apple by biting into it, using only her teeth and not her hands. If she was successful on the first attempt, it was believed the romance was meant to be. Apple bobbing was popular at Celtic festivals celebrating the end of the harvest season, which led to the game s ties to autumn. When early European colonists brought apple seeds to America, they also brought the bobbing tradition with them.
