Fairies have maintained a persistent presence in literature throughout human history and references can be dated back to 1000 BC where in the Iliad‚ Homer describes how “watery fairies dance in mazy rings.” This is an indication that the notion of the fairy and it’s environment is heavily entrenched throughout the different cultures of the world and occupies a place in written history that skews the boarders of reality and make believe‚ where the point of fact and myth begin to blur. This ambiguity

1. Amorality – not being moral. Can’t distinguish between right and wrong. 2. I agree that children are amoral because they aren’t sure what is right and what is wrong. They need to be taught by mistakes and by their parents. For example‚ if a child swears and gets in trouble‚ they didn’t think they did anything wrong because he/she heard from someone else. They don’t know what is right or wrong until they learn it. After Reading 1. The first example of foreshadowing in “The Veldt” is when

Peter Pan can’t seem to grasp the idea of Middle Childhood unlike Wendy who is somewhat ready to

O Wendy lady‚ be our mother.’ (Peter Pan:1911:101) A lady to take care of us.’(Peter Pan:1911:89) Women have been idealized in a rather traditional way in Peter Pan.

They are sought after by all male roles including the pirates and the boys- (both good and evil)
