It all comes down to the amount of words. Books don’t need to have a fixed amount of words to be considered a “book”. While a novel must have no less than 40,000 words in the story or collection of stories. Anything less than 40,000 words and it cannot be referred to as a novel. Just a book.
So if you’re started to pen that epic novel you’ve always wanted to write, remember that word count… 40,000.

Anytime you hear about art or music programs struggling at schools it’s sad because they are so important for kids. That’s why sometimes the students take things into their own hands in order to support the arts.
A bunch of high school students at a school in Missouri did exactly this in a very creative way. They dressed up as painter Bob Ross last week and each one of them did a landscape painting that’ll go up for auction next month. All the money raised will help pay for supplies to go towards the art and ceramics classes at the school.

Any time you’ve handled money in bill form you’ve probably wondered what material the bill is made of. Most people assume it’s paper. Which is not the case.
US banknotes are actually 75 percent cotton and 25 percent linen. Which makes sense why if money in your pocket goes through the wash in your pocket it’s not the end of the world.
