Another difference is that people in this journey were quite desperate to go on the journey. They were willing to do anything to escape from North Korea. As a result‚ many of them were separated from each other and ended up in different places all over. On the other hand‚ the journeys in the book moved in

    Noah Sola English I Mrs. Johnson 4/22/2014 The Odyssey Book 1 The poet invokes the Muse to help him tell the story of Odysseus. How original. I learn that Poseidon‚ god of the sea‚ begrudges (though I don’t know exactly why) against Odysseus and is making the guy’s expedition home pretty difficult. This tells me two very important things: (1) Greek gods are temperamental‚ and (2) Poseidon is a powerful guy. So Poseidon isn’t around on Mount Olympus (presumably because he’s full of activity

    O Pioneer’s was a good movie‚ but an even better book. The movie did a good job at getting the point of the story line across‚ but not so much with the character development. I actually finished the book after watching the whole movie so I knew what to expect. I anticipated everything that was going to happen because I wanted to know if it would be the same as the movie. While the plot did not change‚ there were many things that the movie ceased to explain. For explain‚ I would have liked to know

It was not written down to be read‚ but was composed either orally‚ or at least in an oral style‚ and recited to the Greeks. The events being described

    In the birds the book and movie are really different. To me i really preferred the movie over the book but the both seemed pretty pointless and pretty stupid because like in the movie the characters have different names. In the movie there was also a lot of really bad actors. Whereas in the book you didn’t have to worry about bad actors you just would read. In the movie in the beginning the girl started off in a bird shop pretending to work there and so when a man walked in pretending to buy some

    Do you prefer reading or watching the book Wonder? I would rather watch because‚ I am a visual learner. The movie has a better idea of expressing how the characters feel such as Auggie‚ Jack‚ Julian‚ and Summer. In my opinion‚ the movie has more creativity other than the book‚ where it adds non-sense. The movie shows us a visual picture of Auggie’s life and how hard it was for him. The book tells us the events that happen but‚ doesn’t show us. In the movie Wonder‚ Auggie and Jack got into a fight
