    Review: Snow White and the Huntsman Snow White and the Huntsman is an adaptation of the Grimm fairy tale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

People are to learn from experiences and society to

    January 2013 Just Your Average Snow Day In grade school‚ snow days were the absolute best part of the winter months and living in Missouri promised at least a few per year. One particular day in third grade stands out in my mind as the best snow day of all. Any kid could tell you how a snow day begins; waking up at the regular time and groggily recalling the forecast from the night before‚ we would run to the window and peer out to see the blinding white sight of new snow covering the ground.

    I understand that schools get closed due to snow all the time‚ but what’s peculiar is how much they get. “ I don’t want you all to be disappointed‚ but I doubt if there’ll be enough snow for a snowball.” (Lee‚64). That clearly shows there was no reason for a snow day. Compared to today‚ it has to be a lot of snow to where the roads don’t get plowed to later in the day. Another major difference is that it is in Alabama. There is never snow down there‚ so you can see how much it changed most
