Carter procured two cases of beer, iced down in an old artillery shell box and anyone’s guess where he obtained the ice. For this rotation, Captain Mason brought the food, which consisted of turkey and cheese sandwiches on freshly baked bread, potato chips, and fresh chocolate chip cookies. As with the ice, the rest of the unit wondered where the captain obtained the fresh baked goods and he wasn’t about to tell them he raided Colonel Johnson’s supply of fresh food from Da Nang. Colonel Johnson never ate from the mess and always had better food than the rest of his men. Jackson leaned against the doorjamb, watching his men and their antics until…

    This property, although it fulfilled their dream of owning their own farm, did not have a house, and consequently they had to live in a mobile home for several years. At first the excitement of owning their own farm was enough to sustain them, but after a year the novelty was beginning to erode and it began getting more difficult to live there. It was in this cramped house that they had Lucy, their first child born in Canada, which was a special moment for them. It was, however, a time when they experienced their first snow storm. In this snow storm, an unbelievable amount of snow covered their roof, and in fact they were not able to get to town for a week.

    For my group we did the scene where Jem and Scout find the items inside the knothole in the Radley’s place. This scene is very important to me because it shows us how Boo Radley really is. We see him as someone who is unliked from people. They make him seem as someone who is unknown and scary. In this chapter, they make us see another side of Boo Radley we never would have seen.…

    I can’t say I’m astonished by the State Board of Education’s decision to ban “To Kill a Mockingbird”. After all, what can you expect from such short-minded people? Such people that regrettably are put in the position to judge what books are moral and fit to be read by young adults. Is it the book’s display of what really happens in the world, or the book’s lessons of protecting innocence and standing up for what you see as right, that makes this book so disgraceful, that we must shelter young minds from?…

    The book’s first chapter is about Dryden meeting Rachel. She runs into him early in the morning and asks “Yes or no, she said, I can’t wait any longer”(Lee 6). From how Patrick Lee describes the scene you can clearly tell Rachel does not have a lot of time to waste. She needs to get going as fast as possible. That is why I chose the song Time Bomb by All Time Low. The quote from the song is, “We were like a time bomb set into motion, we knew that we were destined to explode”. This quote works imperviously for the whole book. The two are always being chased down and Rachel constantly has time stuck on her mind. She always has to be on the run from the Government. She makes some friends on this journey, in the little time she feels safe. She has had time stuck in her head since she escaped the laboratory that they were testing her in. Rachel tells Dryden she can not wait very long. She is just trying to keep enough time between her and the government, or at least enough to let her live. She lost all of her memory and that will take time for it to all come back to…

    David Guterson, the author of Snow Falling on Cedars, says that Harper Lee’s novel To Kill a Mockingbird has had an impact on his writing. There are major similarities shared between the two novels, along with a huge difference. To begin with, the biggest similarity is that the novels both have prejudice apparent throughout the stories. In To Kill a Mockingbird, a colored man, Tom Robinson, went to court because a white girl accused him of raping her. Many people did not support Tom because he was colored, and he was judged as a liar and stupid. Similarly, a Japanese man named Kabuo Miyamoto has gone to court after being accused of killing a white man in Snow Falling on Cedars. He also did not have much support because of his race. The trial occurred about a decade after the attack on Pearl Harbor, and many Japanese were treated unfairly.…

    In the book To Kill a Mockingbird, written by Harper Lee, the main theme is that it is a sin to kill a mockingbird. This metaphor of not killing mockingbird is clearly portrayed throughout the course of this novel. This theme is so important to the plot of this novel that the author decided to entitle the book after this very metaphor. Mockingbirds are birds that do not do anything wrong and they just give us music. Atticus is the main character in the novel that really stressed why it is a sin to kill a mockingbird. Mockingbirds are just a simple metaphor for the characters in this book who are killed, such as Mr. Raymond and Tom Robinson.…
