    As the essay begins, the sense of a children's story is very much conveyed. "A weasel is wild. Who knows what he thinks? He sleeps in his underground den, his tail draped over his nose." These first three sentences give an introduction to the topic and describe the basics about a weasel. The short sentences are typical of children's story writing as well as the simple ideas. Dillard uses this type of introduction to appeal to all types of readers and to establish her ideas in a very elementary type style.…

    Growing up, my childhood was ladled with stories. I absolutely loved Carmen Brown, Junie B. Jones, and Joey Piggza, but the one story that stood out the most to me was The Bernstein Bears. The Bernstein Bears is a children’s story book collection written and illustrated by Stan and Jan Bernstein. The series focuses on combating common child and adolescent issue with the ‘power’ of family unity. Family unity was something that I felt I did not have growing up, and I idealized the idea of having a family unit with all three bears: mama,…

    The True Story of the Three Little Pigs by Jon Scieszka showed the value of looking at a story from a different perspective. While I used this idea somewhat in my paper, by writing from the point of view of a chocolate bar, Scieszka wrote The True Story of the Three Little Pigs from a perspective that most people do not consider. By writing from an alternative perspective, the wolf is able to persuade the readers that he is not as bad as most think he is. Although I read this book to plan a lesson for my class, it was instrumental in developing my own…

They usually have less lines than a story. But tell a deeper story. Today I will use the following poem as an example and walk you through the steps I take to annotate a poem. (I 'm not quite sure who the author is, but we used it as practice in my English class and I fell in love with it.)…
