Rios, Alberto, et. al. The Secret Lion. (underline title) Name

of editors. 5th ed. Place of Publication: Publishing

Company, 2004. 166-169.

list information provided. if you don’t have the editor’s names or any publication info then skip it. pay attention to punctuation marks. mine are correct. et. al. is used for more than two authors. Indent after first line.

Cite purely the internet website you used. That grow to be your source. think of of this analogy: you consulted a textbook as area of your learn. on the decrease back of this textbook are 7 pages of references that the e book’s authors consulted as they have been writing the e book or quoted in the e book. might you cite the textbook or the textbook plus the 7 pages of references?
