    How to Train Your Dragon In 2003‚ a book by Cressida Cowell entitled How to Train Your Dragon was published. Seven years later‚ a movie of the same name‚ based on her book was produced.

In the both the book and the movie‚ the story revolves around a boy named Hiccup; a scrawny kid‚ who lives on an island called

    Another thing I like about train travel is that I can get up and walk around. There is often a cafe or dining car so I can go there and have a coffee. I also like looking at the scenery from the train windows. And some trains now have kiddy cars so parents can go in there and not worry about their kids disturbing others. And those trains also have toilets that have plenty of space for kids and baby changing stuff. Well‚ at least this is how it is in Germany. And there is also the benefit of sleeping

    or unconscious. Still‚ most paintings tend to be similar enough to others in theme or composition that they lend themselves well to being compared and contrasted. I will compare and contrast George Tooker’s The Subway‚ and Cyril E. Power’s The Tube Train. George Tooker’s The Subway is a haunting yet beautiful piece. Painted using the egg tempera method‚ it is stunning for its strategic usage of warm colors. The intention of Tooker’s painting is to portray such a familiar scene as a subway as ominous

With a quick glimpse of the eye‚ one may think these two pieces of artwork are similar. After all‚ a subway and a tube train are basically the same thing. To a trained eye‚ one can see the many differences in the two pieces. Tooker was associated with the Magic Realism movements‚ and is best known for his depictions of alienation in modern
