    two poems “Daddy‚” by Sylvia Plath and “Annabel Lee‚” by Edgar Allan Poe. I found that these two particular poems have many similarities‚ as well as differences‚ but I feel that the similarities are more apparent.

    ELA‚ we read three of the 900 Cinderella stories and one poem. I liked “Ashenputtel” because it had some cool features of the story such as the background of the story‚ but what was surprising is that it had blood and gore in it. “Yeh-Shen” was not my favorite‚ but I did think her step-mom and sister deserved punishment because of how they treated her. Apparently they didn`t know the phrase “treat others the way you want to be treated”. In the “Algonquin Cinderella” the step-sisters should have been

    is the ultimate reward represented as a form of a prince charming for having a good behavior in life. Therefore‚ in the case of fairytale “Cinderella” by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm’s version‚ love differs with my idea of true love for been unrealistic‚ too innocent‚ and unfair. The best seller shows many nonrealistic examples of love. For example‚ when Cinderella meets the prince charming and immediately wants to marry him.
