    Will Grayson, will grayson is a collaboration book between John Green and David Levithan where two separate stories of two teenage boys named Will Grayson collide. The first Will’s goal is to follow his rules he established for life. 1) Don’t care too much, and 2) Shut up. He spends most of his life following around his friend, Tiny Cooper, and repressing his feelings, as seen here, *excerpt 1*. The other will is a misunderstood, angry, angsty sort of kid. He hides everything he feels. This will has depression, not many friends, and a stressed out mom. He puts her through so much. *excerpt 2* The book may seem like it would be confusing to follow but there is a big difference between the two will graysons. One is Will Grayson with correct capitalization, and the other is will grayson, with no capitalization at all. This way, the reader can distinguish John Green’s and David Levithan’s writing.…

    The narrative concerning the exploration of the North American continent was a little bit of Eu-ropean ethnocentrism, as well as a reflection of historical reality. According to the book, “First Peoples”, just about everyone from monks to visitors from outer space “discovered” America much earlier than Columbus. For example: archaeological evidence points to the Vikings being in Greenland, Newfoundland and Labrador back in 1000 AD. However, due to relations with the Native population that were mired in violence the colonies that were created by the Vikings were short lived. By the end of the 15th century, Europe became the dominant force regarding globe expansion that reached into Africa, America, Asia and Australia.…
