    There are perhaps no days of our childhood we lived so fully as those we spent with a favorite book.” This is a famous quote said by Marcel Proust. Books over the centuries have had an influential impact on the lives of many. Arguably, there are none more influential than children’s books. Children’s books contain important life lessons and teach many children the basic values they will hold for the remainder of their lives.

    The Controversy Of Roald Dahl's View Of Society

    “The very controversy caused by Roald Dahl's works for early adolescents has drawn millions of teens to his books and, subsequently, encouraged them to enjoy reading. These young people found in Roald Dahl something that they could not find anywhere else: an author with a view of society that was essentially identical to their own--distrustful of authority figures and firm in the belief that good will triumph. Concerning Dahl's popularity, the librarian of one middle school made this comment during the spring of 1997: "Roald Dahl's books are always on our reorder list, for copies of his books circulate so much they are worn in no time! The titles are always checked out and usually on reserve!" (Crawford). Roald Dahl's view of society, his contempt…

    Tale Of A Tub By John Swift

    Tale of a Tub setion II, upon first reading this section I was drawn to its comedic and the manner in which the writer John Swift decided to convey his message. Needless to say, at first I was incredibly confused and found it quite difficult to understand the true meaning behind the three coats and the will given by the father to his three sons. However, as I continued reading I began to understand that the three coats had a more aligorical meaning and that Peter, Jack, and Martin represented demonations of Chrisitianity, while the fathers will was similar to the bible. This is best exemplified by the quote "Once upon a time there was a man who had three sons by one wife, and all at birth, neither could the midwife tell certainly which…

    Once More To The Lake By E.B. White

    Once More to the Lake by E.B. WhiteOnce More to the Lake, by E.B. White was an essay in which a father struggles to find himself. The essay is about a little boy and his father. They go to a lake where the father had been in his childhood years. The father looks back at those years and tries to relive the moments through his son's eyes. He knows he can't, and has difficulty dealing with the fact that he can't go back in time. E.B. White's way of letting the reader know that the father is in a way depressed, is through great detail and description. The story mentions how the lake has changes since the father had seen it last. How the once gravel roads have been paved over, and the sail boats are now replace with boats with outboard motors. As the reader, one can sense a feeling of how the father isn't able to adapt to these changes. The little boy in the story, the son, also doesn't seem to appreciate the lake as much as the father did when he was growing up. Like how when he was a boy, he would wake up early to fish. Now the father wishes his son would do the same. It seemed the little boy just too the trip for granted. He didn't appear to be as appreciative as the father once was. The father describes the view as pretty much being the same. How things felt the same, like the moss on his feet and such. He didn't feel that the lake had changed any, but everything around it did. This is when the idea of a duel personality comes into picture. The father can almost see himself as a child, doing the things he wished his son would do. When he was young he would get up especially early to fix his fishing pole and even help set the dinner table. Then he realizes that his son doesn't do any of these things, making the father feel as if the trip just isn't the same. As the story progresses, the father begins to point out the differences of his once peaceful get-a way. How when arriving was something to look forward to, seeing all of the other family's greet you, the madness…

    Free the children report

    There were some opinions by the writer that intrigued me. A particular excerpt that I liked very much was ‘Be bored and see where it takes you’. I heartily agree with this statement because kids nowadays expect to be entertained all the time. They do not learn how to compromise and innovate like me and my friends did in our childhood. They do not appreciate the power of imagination and how it can take us anywhere we want. I remember making a make-believe fort out of all the…

    The Swimming Pools By Thomas Lux

    The Swimming Pools by Thomas Lux is a poem that talks about the rich and the poor. Lux use 5 kids at an apartment complex pool, one fat kid, one insecure girl, and three other kids to represent the different social and economic classes we have in society today. Lux compares these kids to the poor, the lower middle class, and the rich. He uses the innocence of the kids at the pool to get the idea that the rich always are cruel to the poor, and he uses the insecure girl to show the sympathy the lower middle class has for the poor because they are so close to them when it comes to social and economic class. In the poem The Swimming Pools, Thomas Lux gets his theme of the top always has it easier than the bottom across by using literary devices such as symbolism, hyperbole, and diction.…

The order of the story starts with his mother buying a birthday cake, then a car hits the boy unconscious for the rest of the story. Curiously, the name of the story originates from the father going home from the to take a bath, and after the mother goes.…
