With this in mind, one can relate sociological concepts, such as racial groups and genders stratification, to the book “The Sneetches”.…

    To begin, most of the time, Dr. Seuss’s editing company would come and ask him to create a book that had between 50 to 250 new vocabulary words for kids to learn. As usual this was something that Dr. Seuss never had trouble with. The Cat in the Hat was published with 48 different words. Within those 48 words, more than just the cat coming to a house to entertain the kids way conveyed (Dr. Seuss Biography). Other stories such as Yurtle the Turtle and The Butter Battle Book each have understandable symbols. In addition to symbolism, Dr. Seuss used rhyme as another key to his superlative writing and cartoons. For example, Seuss used rhyme in the Cat in the Hat when he said, “...Make that cat go away! Tell that cat you DO NOT want to play. Dr.…

    "No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its avatar and its seal- the redness and the horror of blood" (1). Edgar Allan Poe was a master of the macabre; his very stories injecting fear into the hearts of his readers. Poe's life was filled with tragedy, as several of the important women in his life, including his wife and daughter died at a young age. He utilized poems and books to express that tragedy. The short stories, "The Black Cat," and, "The Masque of the Red Death," both written by Poe, enhance the theme of fear. "The Black Cat," was about a narrator who had gone crazy and was so overcome by guilt that he went to extreme measures including…

    Looking at two essays, “The Joy of Reading and Writing: Superman and me” by Sherman Alexie, and “Learning to Read and Write” by Frederick Douglass, comparisons between the two are greatly visible. Both of these stories take an in depth look at these two young men’s lives, as we focus on what these stories are trying to tell, and what message(s) are trying to get across. Not only do these two authors share similarities in upbringing, but they also share the same determination when it comes to educating themselves on their own and proving to others that ignorance truly is bliss.…

    As my first grade teacher rolls the giant TV station into my class, a majority of my fellow classmates let out an over exaggerated sigh. The lights shut and the screen flicks on, filling the room with the outdated theme song to Reading Rainbow, beginning the reading lesson for the day. From despising Reading Rainbow and getting my first Junie B. Jones book to reading The Catcher in the Rye and Fahrenheit 451, my love for reading has grown to the point of wanting to own a library that one would see on pinterest when looking for cute bookshelf ideas.…

    Assigned Summer reading has always been dreadful for me because the books are usually dull and uneventful. However, this year, I thoroughly enjoyed a few of the books I read. I heard so much about F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby’s famous plot, which heightened my excitement to read it. This book was different from books I had read previously, it was so well known not just for the plot but also the syntax and diction. Moreover, I read the chapters a few times, and was pleased at every turn of the page. Secondly, Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison had an interesting perspective on slavery in the south. I was expecting it to follow the same course as books in a similar genre usually do, but I was able to relate the internal struggles of the…
