How Is Touching Spirit Bear Different From The Pearl
Comparison Essay
I like reading a book that has an exciting beginning a fast pace and that is very detailed. The beginning of a book usually determines the succession of the book, because that section is where the author tries to hook the reader like a fishermen trying to reel in a fish. Between the books Pigmen,Touching Spirit Bear,The Pearl and the outsiders, I think Touching spirit bear has the most superior beginning based on the categories of descriptive language,General readability and the pace of story development.

Touching Spirit Bear compared to The Pearl in the category of story Development.
Touching Spirit Bear has a very fast paced story development compared to The pearl. Every sentence in Touching Spirit Bear is contributed to the story it was also very fast paced but still tremendously understandable, it made me feel immersed in the the story like I just had an energy drink. The Pearl was very different though, it was calm and soft it made me feel very relaxed like a nice warm nap. The Pearl had a slow development being detailed about other aspects for ex. The contrast between the baby being strong to the song of evil in the Kino’s head (PG.2) “In Kino's head there was a song now, clear and soft, he would've called it the song of family”. In my

    I think the Japanese proverb, “Fall seven times, stand up eight” explains that no matter how many times you fall, you will get up. In Touching Spirit Bear, the main character, Cole, struggles with how to live his life. He believes no one loves him, or appreciates him. Especially his parents, who could care less whether Cole was alive or dead. So, given the circumstances, Cole is a bad kid. He is 15, and has been in trouble with the law half his life. So, the proverb is saying, no matter how many tough times, relating to Cole, are in your life, push through, and stand up. Everyone gets to have a happy ending, you just have to know how to rise up to the challenge.…

    The book and the movie are very similar, but there is some very large differences. The major plot points are the same in both versions of the Outsiders. They both have Johnny killing Bob, Johnny getting killed from the fire, and Johnny commiting suicide because of Johnny’s death. They also both have the same style of clothing.…

    The outsiders movie and novel have many differences and similarities. I have only written about two of each but it is always fun to go back and look for more There is a hug variation between the two, the tiny details were precisely the same. The Outsiders is about a group of kids that are all different some are greasers, which have the leather jackets and the slicked back hair, and there are the Socs, they are the rich kids of town and are more dressed up then the greasers are. One way that the book is different from the movie is that the movie didn't say anything about Sodapop, the main character's older brother, wanting to get married to a girl when she is out of school and in the book there is a few pages about how much Soda loves…

    The Outsiders book is a great book that is action packed, joke filled, and great for imagination. In the book it shows the hardship of the “Greasers” lives versus the hardships of the “Socs” lives which were supposedly much easier. It also shows the thoughts that ran through Ponyboy's head as and after he was helping the kids safely out of the burning church. In the book, Sodapop looks the best by far. “Soda is handsomer than anyone I know (Hinton 7).” Johnny is just a scrawny little boy. Ponyboy has long greased back hair. “My hair is longer than a lot of boys (Hinton 1).” Darry looks tough and mean. Dally is hard,…

    By far one of the best books I read, but mostly just because it’s filled with action and slight romance. The Outsiders is a book filled with greasers and kids that don’t fit in with society, hence the name outsiders. It’s shows off how some people that can be represented as hoodlum like, they can still be honorable and respect one another. The book has multiple genius quotes that can be interpreted in different ways, but still hold its meaning.…

    In conclusion, the outsiders is different because of acting skills, and mostly time. The book might take a reader about two, maybe three days to read depending on skill level. Obviously, the book can’t take two or three days long. The differences are mostly ok because the movie was still a lot like the book despite characteristic looks, and settings. Other than these few things, the Outsiders will always be a great original by S.E.…

    Usually inbreeding is a great tool used to get more of the desired traits in livestock, but when it comes to wild animals the outcome is not as successful. I feel that inbreeding is only harmful to wild animals because unlike domesticated animals wild animals are not in a controlled environment. I believe that there is much more effort put into conserving endangered species in the wild. After all the programs made for red wolves, they still seem to not be at the desired or expected population…

    Greek Sculpture

    • 6 Pages

    Greek Sculpture evolved and transformed throughout the ancient civilization through nearly nine hundred years and three major historical periods. Over the lengthy time that the Greeks prospered, many artists and sculptors worked to perfect the arts that they labored on. They started from the ground up and their art continuously developed from the feet, eventually up to the head where the sculpture was perfected. Each period, from the Geometric to the Hellenistic had significant jumps in skill within the artists, although they can be grouped together by similarities. The Geometric, the Orientalizing and the Archaic periods have many similarities based on how primitive they were. The Early, High and Late Classical sculptures are largely formed from the Canon that Polykleitos developed. Lastly comes the Hellenistic period. It varied so differently from the other periods because of the amount of detail that the sculptures put into their work.…
