    Among The Hidden, By Margaret Peterson Haddix

    Maya Angelou once said, “Freedom is never free.” This is true because a person always has to pay some sort of price in order to be free, whether in a literal sense or not. In the book Among the Hidden, by Margaret Peterson Haddix, Luke Garner is an illegal third child in a place where overpopulation forces the government to make unfair laws. Each family is allowed to have two children, so Luke envies his older brothers and cannot live his life the way he wants to.

    The Golden Goblet

    One of the reasons that finding the goblet was the most important event was because that’s why he was able to find out Gebu was a tomb robber. There was no other explanation for finding such a beautiful item in his room. In the book, it states, “This treasure bore the name of Thutmose the Conqueror, Pharaoh of Egypt over a hundred years ago. Gebu had robbed a tomb. There was no other explanation.” This quote supports the idea that Gebu was indeed a tomb robber and that Ranofer should…

    The Mother's Book, By Lydia Maria Child

    During a time period in which advice literature on child rearing often prompted parents to use harsh means to raise their children, Lydia Maria Child’s The Mother's Book stands out. Unlike other advice literature books from the 1800’s, it offers sensible advice without the need for severe punishments. In fact, in an excerpt of The Mother's Book, included in the book Going to the Source, Child provides her suggestions for handling teenage daughters, and states that what a mother needs is “a ready sympathy with youthful feelings” rather than “unnecessary restraint and harshness.” (GS, 171) However, even though the document does supply information about raising teenage girls, it does not provide information about raising girls who are not teenagers…
