 Noticed how we used the props object to render the title and body values that will be passed to the Blog component. Props is read-only or immutable, so we don’t have to worry about changing the props values.

+### Destructuring props
+
+Often, when you open a Component `.js` file, it's nice to know exactly what props this component takes. You can do this by using the `propTypes` above -- or you can destructure your props already when defining your stateless component. 
+
+Using the Blog component from above, it would look like this:
+
+```javascript
+const Blog = ({title, body)} => {
+  return (
+    <div>
+      <h2>{title}</h2>
+      <p>{body}</p>
+    </div>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+Notie how we saved a few characters by omitting `props.xx` - and we can quickly see that the component requires a title and a body. Neat!
+
+Be aware that this uses ES6 syntax.
