Looking back into my life, I know that even though not all of my experiences were great, they made me who I am today.…
Throughout the ages, authors have been known to use many of their life experiences in their literary works.

New concepts of childhood have been established to an enormous extent over the centuries. Over the course of the 18th and 19th centuries people have had different ideas of childhood and how children should be raised.
