    Who Is Sharon Draper's Tears Of A Tiger: Chapter Summary

    Teaching Connections: I see this as a good book to use with young African Americans because the main characters in the book are African American kids in high school. The novel is also a very good teaching aide because it includes many different types of writing styles like poems, letters and short essays. I feel the strongest point to using the book in the classroom is the plot which goes into great details about what depression can do to someone and how much of an impact our decisions can make.…

    And in a sense, "Uncle Tom's Cabin", this is definitely not children's book - the book is primarily about children of Eve (Evangeline), Enrique, Harry (Harris), Topsy (seventeen years before this naughty girl Negro is baptized and leaves a missionary in Africa), faith in the "Be like children." It is for the violence "against defenseless children, girls and women," Augustin Saint-Clair "ready to curse their homeland ..."…

    Rainbow Omega Essay

    By about six-thirty in the morning, we had loaded the van and we were ready to go. We got on the road and were on Highway 64 heading to Eastaboga, AL. Eastaboga is home to two things, the Talladega Speedway and Rainbow Omega. One of those two places was our destination. Rainbow Omega houses over 82 residents who are afflicted with mental illness. The variety of afflictions range from small brain damage to down syndrome. Nonetheless, the residents stay there permanently with weekend shopping trips or vacations with their parents. All of the tenants are over the age of 30, so that puts their parents at about 60. With that being said, a majority of the guardians are not able to give the care that is offered at Rainbow Omega. As a result, they send their kids to this establishment with frequent visits. Rainbow Omega is a great facility for people who need help. They are a…

    Short Story Analysis: Joyce Carol Oates's Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?

    What I feel is significant about this piece of literature is the story that is being told and the reality behind it. Many young girls face this kind of reality everyday and don’t have a good outcome. The authors’ intention in the story was to portray a little girl named Connie and show her struggle with adolescence and wanting to become a woman far too fast. The themes that stand out to me in this story are Connie’s constant fantasizing and daydreaming. She is always worried about her appearance and fantasizing about boys, but when it comes down to the reality of actually engaging and being confronted with a man, she reverts to being a child again. Another theme that stands out to me is Connie leaving herself extremely vulnerable. She has her friends’ dad drop them off at a shopping plaza, but sneaks off to a drive in to meet boys. Then she meets with Eddie and hangs out in an alley. This exposes her to Arnold Friend. She portrays herself with a lot of independence, but when she has the confrontation with him at her house, she tries to scare him away with saying, “But my father’s coming back. He’s coming to get me” (Oates 330). She says this because she is still a little girl and doesn’t quite know how…

    Essay Rainbow's End

    Belonging can enrich our identity and relationships, and can lead to acceptance and understanding. This essay will be comparing and contrasting the ways the concept of Belonging is represented in the play, Rainbow’s End, by Jane Harrison as well as the Playstation 1 videogame Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, developed by Oddworld Inhabitants. Rainbow’s End is a portrayal of the harsh realities of life as Indigenous people in the 1950’s. Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee demonstrates the cruel treatment of Abe and his buddies, the Mudukons, by the Glukkons and Sligs that have enslaved them and now want to slaughter them for profits-sake. Now it is up to Abe to save all his friends and himself. What promotes belonging is a willingness to be accepting of others.…

    It there a clear divide between childrens books

    By critical analysis it can become a very complicating task to define a child’s book. There are many fundamental definitive factors that can be found in books that have been written for Children. For instance, if we take the example of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe C.S Lewis 1950 . Universally it is recognised as a book for children. It contains the inherent facets of a children’s book. Often a typical children’s book will have a child protagonist. In the classic novel The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe C.S Lewis. C.S Lewis has not just one child protagonist but four. Very commonly we find the child protagonist in the story is an orphan. Again we can see C.S Lewis has shown four children that are away from their parents and the typical family nucleus. Moreover, examples of orphanage can be seen in the classic novel of The Jungle book by Rudyard Kipling 1894. In The Jungle book the child protagonist is an orphan found in the jungle floating in a basket by a panther.…

    Part-Time Indian Thesis

    The coming of age theme with touches of a disenchanted American dream makes the book a fantastic read for a young adult like myself. The book also drew my attention to the issues facing the Native American culture. I had no idea that Native Americans faced poverty and other issues such as alcoholism at a much greater rate than the rest of the population. The lack of media coverage of these issues is also concerning. The media is one-sided when it comes to exposing the struggles of minority groups. Most of their attention is focused on African Americans when in fact there is another minority group that was in America before any other group stepped foot on this land. Overall, I enjoyed the novel because I connected with Junior on some experiences and it brought my attention to the issues facing the Native American culture. I would be interested in reading similar books in the future because I want to know more about different cultures. I would also like to read more books by Alexie Sherman because of his incorporation of humor into serious situations. I would not recommend this book to everyone because of the profane language and sexual content. I would recommend it to teenagers and young adults who are not sensitive to reading books with adult…

    Coming of Age Novels

    Coming of age novels, Cold Sassy Tree and To Kill a Mockingbird introduce readers to 14 year old Will Tweedy of Cold Sassy, Georgia and 5 year old Jean Louise “Scout” Finch of Maycomb County, Alabama. Both characters were brought up in small, close-knit southern towns, with false views of the world, and ignorance to knowledge and experience. As the stories progess however, the two gain a new type of knowledge and realization of the world. Experiences dealing with love, death, racism and discrimination helped the character’s child-like ideas of the world blossom into a more adult-like perspective. Will and Scout had changed in ways both . My paper will further discuss the traits that Scout Finch and Will Tweedy share.…

    Carry On And Fangirl Comparison

    Two books, two different stories, both delving into the pressure put on youths and how young adults grow and change with the scrutiny of society and those close to them. This perfectly describes Carry On and Fangirl, two coming of age novels written by Rainbow Rowell. Carry On and Fangirl have a unique connection with each other. Fangirl’s main character writes fanfiction about Simon Snow and his friends from a book that is fictional to her. Carry On is about Simon Snow and his friends, but in Carry On, they are not fictional. These books are similar in relation to several of their characters, but their depictions of those characters (Simon Snow, Agatha Wellbelove, Penelope Bunce, Tyrannus Basilton Grimm-Pitch) is drastically unalike.…

    Racism In Jasper Jones

    Lois T. Stover once said that “There is nothing simple about quality young adult literature.” In this, Stover definitely has a point. Young adult literature can be as complex or easy as anything else, including adult literature. Young adult novels today mostly range from the mindless romance of Twilight to the arguably great yet unoriginal dystopian rebellion…
