Goodreads Book Giveaway
The primitive-looking coelacanth (pronounced SEEL-uh-kanth) was thought to have gone extinct with the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. But its discovery in 1938 by a South African museum curator on a local fishing trawler fascinated the world and ignited a debate about how this bizarre lobe-finned fish fits into the evolution of land animals.
There are only two known species of coelacanths: one that lives near the Comoros Islands off the east coast of Africa, and one found in the waters off Sulawesi, Indonesia. Many scientists believe that the unique characteristics of the coelacanth represent an early step in the evolution of fish to terrestrial four-legged animals like amphibians.

Interview questions about A GIRL NAMED MARY
·
What is the audience’s journey and what can I
take away from this journey?
To begin, we get an idea of what it was like for a girl,
growing up in Galilee at this tumultuous time. Mary is saying that one may want
to explore the bounds of tradition but to exceed them maybe impossible for one
person. These lines are embedded in a society entrenched in tradition.
·
What am I learning about humanity and what is
the lesson I'm leaving with? Is it a relatable coming of age story? This question relates directly to the answer above. The
lesson here is that for change to have a lasting effect, it must be undertaken
by a large segment of society. Mary learns this while coming of age; she begins
to see “both sides of the coin” as she interacts with her cousin, Rebekka.
·
A love story/ a story where a woman sacrifices
her wants for her needs? This is certainly one aspect
of the story as described above.
·
Is it a story of a woman oppressed by society
who wants nothing more than to rebel and flip things on end? No, although Jewish society at her time wais oppressed by
tradition, she was not attempting to flip things on end. After Joachim’s
arrest, she begins to see the value of a male in the household. She still feels
that she doesn’t want to be dependent totally on that male. Her role models are
her mother, a weaver, and her aunt Ruth, a midwife and healer, who, she thinks,
could be able to generate income. She examines her own abilities and realizes
she could provide some income as an animal healer.
·
Is it a story about rebelling against tyranny
and fighting for what's right even when it's hard (Mary’s fathers story). Joachim’s influence on Mary becomes visible as she begins to
rebel. This entire story of rebellion is a backdrop for the future life of
Jesus, Mary’s son.
