Jeffers, O. (2006). The Incredible Book Eating Boy. New York, NY: Philomel Books.
Henry was a book lover, but not like how you and I love book he would eat them it all started will a few words from a text then moved on to him eating a whole book in one sitting. What will happen when Henry starts feeling ill?
When I first got the book I thought it was interesting because in the back of the book in the left hand bottom corner where it a chuck of the book missing meant to look like someone eat the book and I thought that was pretty to make the book look like someone eat when it’s about a boy who eat books. There also was a disclaimer on the back telling children not to eat this book at home I thought that was funny. I think out of all, the book

It also should a realness in to how much work it takes and time it put in to the illustrations of the book. I also thought it was a cute story too because what little kid hasn’t imaged have a pet moose or elephant at home they will find it silly too because you can’t have a pet moose that not possible. He also throws a few picture of his other character in this book when Wilfred was trying to find of way out to the sting he was tangled in there where little bubbles with his other character in it. I would recommend this book for teacher to let children know about wild life or how the take care of pet. I know for sure the this will be one of the book I will have in my classroom library.
Activity: Children in small or large groups will discuss with the help of the teacher the “pros” and “cons” of having a pet moose with the use of a T-chart.

This one had more colors to it not just orange, red, and white. Their faces had color this time when in the last book they just had white face so they look more human and alive. The story line was real basic just talking about the opposite of each of happy and sad, up and down, high and low. This would be a great book to use if you wanted to teach children about the opposites of each other and the different between things. There was really no depth in the story line. This book is much simpler than any of this other books it had hand drawing, simple primary color, along with white background. Where in his other books there are many bright colors and different shades he sometime put collages in his background along with combining hand drawing and painting. I also like this book because the group he made are the kind of characters you want to see what they are up to next or what kind of trouble they will get
PFC Miah Nielsen 20180429 I’m Staying With My Boys In the heat of the moment approaching Iwo Jima, “something on the burned lava wall moved. Jesus Christ, (the Japanese) were still there. We hadn’t even touched them. They were looking straight down at us, sighting us in” (Proser 30). In the biography titled “I’m Staying With My Boys” by Jim Proser with Jerry Cutter, Sgt.
Both of these are detailed and filled with imagery that allows the reader to visualize what he himself was actually seeing as a child. Also, this book
In the book the Kids of Appetite, the author uses literary devices such as flashbacks, order of events, and repetition to convey feelings in the reader. The author uses flashbacks to create tension and suspense about the characters. For example, the book takes place with Victor and Madeline in separate interrogation rooms at the Hackensack police station clearly trying stall the officers. Then the scene changes and the story flashes back to seven days prior, before anything has happened. Furthermore, the flashback helps you understand the order of events, which shows you how the Kids of Appetite( Victor, Madeline, Coco, Nzuzi, and Mbemba), a gang of homeless kids who have made there own little family, got to their present situation and ultimately

Kidwatching is an interesting and helpful strategy for me to understand my focus students’ literacy behavior. This observation strategy is an ideal way for me to get to know my students’ literacy tendencies and interests. There are many students who do not feel comfortable with their reading and writing skills, which causes the students to lack interest in all literature. After watching and interviewing my focus students, I learned that not all students like to read and write. Additionally, I learned that I must always be flexible in the classroom because things may not go as planned and I may have to quickly adjust.
It had more narration so the reader could understand what is happening. Secondly, the movie. The movie was different than the book. It had some parts that were in the book, but it lacked some details.
The writers ' fundamental objective is to delight and engage the audience, as well as to take the reader on an adventure brimming with intense plot twists. The creator accomplishes her objective. For me the book is composed clearly because of its simple yet y descriptive
Based on a true event mixed with some fiction "Who Killed Christopher Goodman" written by Allan Wolf is based on a murder. Christopher Goodman the new kid from California that everyone likes, yet was murdered the night of Deadwood Days. The book is set to be late summer in a Virginia town in the year of 1979, everyone was excited for the upcoming Deadwood Days, but who would have thought that the night of the first day a high schooler would get murdered. Days before Deadwood Days Christopher moved into town and got to know Doc Chestnut, Squid Kaplan, Hunger McCoy, Hazel Turner, and Mildred Penny, he impacted each of the characters life one way or another. Goodman was the nice kid, even though he was a bit strange, he wore some crazy bell bottoms and would love to say the word "ennui", also he was always willing to lend a hand to whoever needed it.
The last distinction I found was the age of Cindy Lu. In the book, the say that Cindy Lu was no more than two. But in the movie, she looks older than two. Cindy Lu has a bigger role in the movie than the book. I found many differences in the book and movie.
In the movie it there are two sister. The movie was a lot like the book and a lot different at the same time but that for the next paragraph. In the movie billy was given the gold cup and he never won the silver cup. Little ann and Old dan weren't running around and they didn't have snow on them during the blizzard. Finally i will be talking about the similarities and differences between the book and movie.
In the article “Let Them Eat Dog”, Jonathan Safran Foer addresses the taboo subject of humans using dogs as a form of protein and sustenance. He analyzes the intelligence of our canine companions in comparison to the species most Americans would believe to be acceptable to consume, such as: pigs, cows, and chickens. While their intelligence is relatively similar, even the most devoted of carnivores still wouldn’t consider dog as a meal option. “Despite the fact that it’s legal in 44 states” (Foer para 1), poses no additional health risks than any other meat, and tastes just as good, American people still refuse to cook the family dog. Foer goes on to mention how millions of dogs, as well as cats, are euthanized every year just in the United
The Night She Disappeared While working a normal night at Pete’s Pizza, two co-workers had arranged to exchange shifts. Kayla Cutler had asked her co-worker Gabie Klug to work for her on a Friday evening. In return Kayla had planned to work for Gabi on that Wednesday. Kayla asked Gabi to work so she could have that Friday off from work. While Kayla and a co-worker named Drew are working that Wednesday evening, they get a delivery call.
Over the summer I read about a person who was a really good track star and served in World War II. Written by Laura Hillenbrand, Unbroken is a non-fiction World War II story about a young man named Louis Zamperini. The story takes place in the pacific islands and Japan during World War II Louis grew up as a restless and naughty boy, but then became a good and famous track star before getting drafted into the second world war. Louis faces the challenge of surviving on his own and enduring cruelty against Japanese leaders as a prisoner of war. One day in 1943, an Army Air Force Bomber crashes into the Pacific Ocean, leaving Louis and some of his crew trapped in the Pacific.
One was evil, and one was good. In the other story, the two kids evened each other out instead. Another thing that was different was the amount of animals. In one, there we 're two of every animal, but it didn’t mention EVERY animal. In the other, there was an abundance of animals that we 're all sacrificing themselves for the Skywoman.
Reading response:Extended text: fiction Lord of the flies The book is about a plane crashes causing the only survivors and a group of schoolboys without adult supervision, trapped on a desert island waiting for rescue. Initially, when I read the beginning of the story, the boys have elected Ralph to be the leader and settled some rules to maintain order in the island. At first, I thought this is a children's adventure story where the children had get along and rescued by their teamwork and it ends up happily. In fact, after reading more the middle part of the book, the positive picture of my images had been smashed up, problems getting more and more.
