Due to the kindness of what Miller is doing, the author heavily appreciates the aesthetic beauty of it, but those who may be against these Flower Flashes may say that it causes obstruction to normal commutes or that it causes a mess. In contrast to this potential argument, Miller and his team makes an effort to recycle all the flowers used in these arrangements as to not be a nuisance to the already raucous New York City.

To some people it is not. Some teachers say that the book is challenging for students. Now, this novel may be difficult for students, but that is how students learn new information.

For example, he begins line 2 using the language of “coral” to describe her lips, but the tone is shifted when he says that

The description of his activities was crucial to creating a dynamic character and display a change in Laird as readers begin to notice his childish habits fade away. For example, I explain the reasoning behind him no longer singing with his sister as he is no longer scared of the dark and is starting to develop a sense of masculinity and power.

Men and women are human beings and equal in each rule in this life. Although there are differences between them, these differences make them unique and special. In fact, men always think that women are created to be treated as slaves. For instance, they prevent them from saying their opinions and forcing them to stay at home to cook and raise their children.
