    Summary Of Snow By Tobias Wolff

    The overall structure and plot of the story plays a part in how Wolff viewed his own life within the characters. It opens with a simple yet intriguing statement: "Tub had been waiting for an hour in the falling snow" (Wolff 1). Immediately, this hook does its job drawing the reader into the story and making him wonder what is going on. In the same paragraph we find that Tub is walking down the street, carrying a rifle and seemingly, shooting the breeze. But then a car comes from nowhere, nearly killing Tub and forcing him to leap off the roadside. Inside the truck, Tub's friends, Kenny and Frank, wait laughing at the apparent "joke" that they had just played. Tub doesn't seem quite as amused, stating, "You could've killed me!" (Wolff 5). Then, the three friends begin to make their way towards the woods to go hunting for…

    Summary Of Snow By Julia Alvarez

    Today America seems to take notice that immigration is a big problem in the United States. However, the immigrants that decide to come over try to find a better lifestyle. Many people do not realize that immigrants crossing over tend to endure many types of problems. For instance, many flee their countries in order to find a better education for their children, as well as work, and to be free from persecution. In fact, many Americans continue to fail to see this, and decide to continue and mistreat immigrants who are crossing over, so that many of them fail to make it in America and let their dreams come true just, because many of them accomplish more than other Americans when it comes to the workforce.…

    Book Report On The Snow Star By Sharon Laferty

    The Snow Star By Sharon Laferty From out of the blue and gold of a Christmas Eve sunset, comes Chrystalene. She was a snowflake, born in the clouds, as all snowflakes are. She began her journey, falling and spinning, with all the other little snowflakes on her way to the earth below. Chrystalene, however, was far too curious a being to simply drift along and wait to see where she would land. She began to look around her, peering at her fellow flakes, and noticing quickly, that she was not like them at all.…

    Scott Momaday's 'The Way To Rainy Mountain'

    Scott Momaday uses nature to dictate the passage of life. He personifies the landscape as a person, he says the there is ‘perfect in the mountains but it belongs to the eagle and the elk, the badger and the bear.’ To me, this tells me the mountains have a feeling of openness, but it is the home of many – not just humans. The mountain holds importance to the Kiowa’s because it is pure wilderness. The landscape that is described helps the reader recognize what the Kiowa’s were thinking upon reaching rainy mountain. The beautiful sights of the land made the Kiowa’s recognize a new passage of life. Their curiosity of the land’s landscape created legends in their tribe. The legends…

Despite our winter gear, the icy missiles managed to find their way into the folded gap between our scarves and necks. Before long it was difficult to see, like driving on the highway in a storm with frozen wipers.…

    On January 12, 1888, the weather in the west was mild, compared to previous weeks.

The cold front would cause one of the worst blizzards for the region, killing close to 500 people.
