Annotation

after working through the tutorial I decided to complete this task. Obviously considering there was only 1 site relevant to my needs I guess thats the site I am going to choose.

The Article describes when the happy meal was released for the first time in 1979 and the first toys you recieved with it. The toys being "a McDoodler stencil, a puzzle book, a McWrist wallet, an ID bracelet or McDonaldland character erasers" (quoted from wikipedia). But as it turns out Happy meals weren't the birth of the first McDonalds toy, and it was infact called Treat of the Week (although this aspect of the article isn't cited) where children would get a ball or a frisbee as their toy.

The host of the web page is Wikipedia, so information is taken from many number of sources cited at the bottom of the article itself. No Author is listed, and there is a possibility that the information may be false due to the disclaimer at the top

"Please help improve this article by adding reliable references. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (November 2008)"

But who would want to lie about a maccas toy?? :P anywho....

The main ideas discussed in the article is about the birth of the happy meal and its toys. The purpose of this article is informative, theres no two sides to the issue!!!!
