Little Red Cap: Commentary Paper Little Red Cap is written by Carol Ann Duffy found in a collection of poems that she wrote about the voices of women and the voice they had compared to the voices of their husbands or partners. This poem works well to portray a rather eerie twist on an old fairytale as most of her stories tend to do.

Every day‚ thousands of planes take to the skies‚ transporting people all over the world. In the process though‚ these huge planes use massive amounts of fuel and greatly add to global warming and pollution. Discouraging non-essential flights is a good idea‚ but not at the expense of limiting the use of cars. Surely we can cut back on both. Travelling by plans has truly made our world feel a lot smaller‚ but not all travel is necessary. For example‚ already‚ technology and the Internet in

In the novel Flight by Sherman Alexie‚ the narrator Zits says‚ “Yes‚ I am Irish and Indian‚ which would be the coolest blend in the world if my parents were around to teach me how to be Irish and Indian. But they’re not here and haven’t been for years‚ so I’m not really Irish and Indian. I’m a blank sky‚ a human solar eclipse” (Alexie 5). In my opinion this quote could mean‚ since his parents died or left there is no one to help him learn his background or his culture. He is a sky without clouds
