Hell and Back; The Night She Disappeared Everyone has a cause, the thing the keeps us going. It gives us the strengths and the necessity to keep going on with life. April Henry, the author of the book, did a good job at describing every detail about the book that it seem realistic. The book keeps the reader entertained and focused on the base plotting of the story. With a mystery to solve, Gabie Klug will reach the end of the line to bring back her friend.

Rosie Evans ' synthesis essay Boomerang Kids: What Are the Causes of Generation Y 's Growing Pains well, first, I think the opening paragraph was a bit wordy it was like she was trying too hard in my opinion, with out-of-the-way I guess I will get to what I am needing to be writing about. It was a smart idea to give examples from her own life and that of her sisters. Her experiences provided relevant examples that people could relate to. I liked the way she explained the biological, economic, and sociological reasons for millennial and generation Y kids coming home. Her examples were well documented and had a firm backing for all three sides of the argument she gave.

Written Gifts In the essay “For a Writer-to-be, the Ideal Gift”, Eudora Welty uses a great deal of imagery to help the reader visualize the text. Although Welty’ uses many different literary elements in her essay, imagery seems to have the biggest effect on the essay. The imagery displayed in the essay was able to give me the ability to imagine every detail she explained as if I also took part in her childhood. Welty’ achieves the best awareness of herself by displaying the life changing effect books had on her life. In the beginning of the essay, Welty’ describes starting out her childhood with toys that “represents my father’s fondest beliefs-in progress, in the future.” It starts out with tinker toys and box kites she describes as “smelling

Her standards lead to a change in her actions because she wants to excel in her English classes. Although throughout this story Amy demonstrated interruptions, at the end she embraces her all her identities. She decided to write a book that included her mother’s English and her peer’s English. Amy says, “Apart from what any critic had to say about my writing, I knew I had succeeded where it counted when my mother finished reading my book and gave me her verdict “So easy to read”. Amy seems to have pride being able to include both identities at the same time.

An interesting storyline with friendly themes such as friendship, hope and never give up, attract all ages, most likely kids, and certainly please many adults too. After reading this book, I find myself relating to Abby about the feelings of missing a “best friend” and hope to see each other again someday. Moreover, Bobbie Pyron alternates between Abby’s perspective (in the first person) and Tam’s perspective (in the third person) in every chapter to demonstrate how these two main characters are desperately trying to find the way back to one another. The readers could easily see the descriptive views of things that happened in the story through her simplistic and comprehensible, but also idiomatic and full of imagery writing

The lessons she is taught by her three feminine influences help her development a lot in the throughout the novel as they are a wide variety of lessons most likely helping think of what to do in most situations she finds herself in. At the start of the novel Scout begins a more naive and innocent, believes lies about Boo and Mrs. Dubose but as the novel proceeds, we see how the different lessons taught to her release her from her naivety and allow her to have an opinion

There is so much a clinician can do with a book in session. Currently, I have a child fluency client. I am able to utilize books to perform fluency therapy all while working on literacy! My client also loves the change of pace that introducing the book brings. I wish I had asked Mrs. Hayes what she does when she does agree with the opinions of a co-worker, parent, or

As I read the title I found myself delighted that the daughter could possibly be the narrator along with appreciation the daughter has for her mother then I thought to myself how cute that is. I’m convinced that the message through the text but mostly through the art is no matter what circumstances or tragedies a family may go through, together a family can hope for better and brighter days. The art which is definitely appealing to me in A Chair for My Mother illustrates with warm, bright and sadly a few dark colors. In any picture book it’s very important to realize the art that the illustrator is interpreting. Many illustrators convey messages in their art in many ways whether it’s through color, lines, or shapes.

I was able to achieve this purpose by carefully selecting my vocabulary, ethos, pathos, and logos. The audience awareness did help me achieve my purpose because I knew what to do and not to do in order to get what I wanted. My angle of vision affected my choices because at the time I was very young and did not know any better or the gravity of the consequences, on the other hand, my mom had more experience and knew if I was not careful something would happen. As stated before, the rhetorical choices I made were effective because I used a lot of ethos in order to appeal my mom and engage with her feelings and way of thinking, I thought that would be more practical and effective than using more pathos and logos, even though I used all of them. My success impacted me because I realized the power of my words, specifically the different modes of persuasion.

I was willing to put in the effort to learn to read because I saw how vital it would be for future academic success. This same attitude really helped prepare me high school. I saw that it was important to maintain high academics and extracurriculars because these are important for college and developing time management skills. My perspective on my Dyslexia drastically changed during high school because I saw how it had helped me learn to self-advocate, be internally motivated and see the impact of my decisions on the

The passage from “Ones writer’s Beginnings” written by Eudora Welty portrayed very strong and detailed language that conveyed how reading experiences had an impact on her writing career. The language she includes is phrases, and figurative language that may catch the reader’s eye while absorbing the text. Phrases are used all throughout this passage; however Welty uses very clever and intriguing phrases to make a detailed and useful point to explain how these experiences help developed into something she did in her adulthood. Phrases such as “As you came in from the bright outside” was very unique because it goes around the fact that this sentence can be put in a simple way but she words it in that to make outside bright, and the

It’s inspiring to see that even though she has changed physically and have aged quite a lot, she’s still passionate about her teachings and beliefs. Her mind is still so strong and full of ideas even though her outer appearance may not show up to par. Even though she’s old, she’s still able to challenge people about their ideas and make them think and even give them books to read at the end of their conversations. Personally, I never knew how much one person can experience in their lifetime and not only living an ordinarily one but to actively make a difference and take a big part of the American Revolution. It’s really inspiring to take a step back and watching something like this because

Deborah Dagit seems to be a very strong person inside and out. Not only does she have a disability, but she uses it and her personal strength to help others facing the same difficulties. Deborah should stand as an inspirational figure for all ages through her strength, willpower, and courage in helping others. I found it interesting how Deborah changed her career right in the middle of college, because she decided to do something that she knew about and lived through. This related to me at this time of life, because I am in the middle of figuring out what I want to do for my career.

Knowing that Andrea is interested in cheerleading, I would choose books about cheerleading to motivate her to read. (Cambria and Guthrie’s, 2010) research indicates that in order to motivate students to read we need to take in consideration their interest, dedication and confidence. “An interested student reads because he enjoys it; a dedicated student reads because he believes it is important, and a confident student reads because he can do it.”(Cambria and Guthrie,
