    The original story of the prodigal son is very touching but is written as all bible stories are written and that is to put anyone to sleep. However‚ Garrison Keillor’s version of the prodigal son makes the same point and is fun to read. He brought it in to a more modern day setting but the same message is sent like the original story. The story of the prodigal son is that he wanted his father to give him everything that he would inherit when the father passed on. His father agreed and he left

    American Son A Love between a mother and her child can be so strong that sometimes it is hard for one to express how they feel. A mother¡¯s love for her child is unconditional and so is the child¡¯s love for their mother. However‚ everybody expresses their love in different ways and sometimes the way one person expresses their love can hurt the other person¡¯s feeling even though it is not intentionally meant to hurt the person. Jonathan Kirsch from the Los Angeles Times writes about the American

    "MOTHER TO SON" OF LANGSTON HUGHES "Mother to Son" of Langston Hughes is my favorite. What the mother in the poem tries to tell her son is that there will be many rough roads that he has to go by in his life but she hopes that he will not give and complete it like his mother. Through the dialect that Hughes used in his poem‚ we can see that the mother was not a well educated woman by the way she talks "there ain’t" (13) and some grammar mistakes. She was living a poor area with "boards torn up"
