    Although The Masque of the Red Death and The Fall of the House of Usher are written in different view points‚ the fact that each method works well for each story is true because third-person helps to better oversee all the events taking place‚ first-person gives a heightened sense of intensity‚ and if each stories’ view point was switched then the two stories would not be the timeless classics that they are today.

    The Movie or the Book? Nicholas Sparks has written multiple novels that have evolved into movies‚ such as The Notebook‚ The Last Song‚ Dear John‚ Message in a Bottle‚ and A Walk to Remember.

Also‚ I think that Lily is nine so the movie can portray the receiving of the bikes
