Dinosaurs in a Haystack...

[Alien4240@aol.com]

I just got Dinosaurs in a Haystack and Bully for Brontosaurs for Christmas 
and I finally got around to starting Haystack and found out they're a bunch 
of essays (my brother gave them to me and I didn't know much about them) so 
I"m wondering, I'm 16 and a sophmore in high school, what's the best way to 
approach them? Should I try to understand them? Should I grab a notebook and 
take notes while hi-lighting pionts in the text (now it sounds like History) 
or should I just read them and try to get the general idea of them so I can 
broaden my field of major issues? ( I guess they weren't all major issues 
though) I've realized this is probably not list-related so anyone so kind as 
to respond, should probably do it off-list. Thankyou.
