The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Decent Essays
The audience for my reimaging tale is people who understand business and politics. This story is indirectly for everyone but the major understanding comes from economic aspects and a dictatorial rule. The way I choose this audience is the same way I choose my theme because the theme of a story changes the "audience”. Also I wanted to make a story for an audience that perceives a short folktale as a larger and more detailed story since the original "The boy who cried wolf" was a moral lesson for children but how about I do reimagining this story but for adults who are sometimes as vulnerable as kids when it comes to money, power and wealth.
The theme of my story is exactly the same as the original which is honesty. Honesty is an important value

    In my book, Michael Vey: The Prisoner of Cell 25, the theme is teamwork. Throughout the entire book, the characters all help each other to achieve their shared goals. For example, when Michael needed a ride to Pasadena, the school bully who stayed back in school and has a license, got him there. Also, when Michael, Taylor, and Ostin started the Electroclan, they helped each other by researching what happened to them making them electrical. For these reasons, I think the following article, poem, and short video suite my book’s theme.…

    The first theme is standing up for what matters to you. The author, Ria Voros, communicates her theme effectively by showing this in the main character as she stands up for what matters to her. An example in the text is when she stood up for james by making posters. It mentioned in the story what poster she was making “I speak to no one, hunch over my computer, type, cut/paste, download and with all the artistic talent I possess, create” (pg.182). This shows that she is standing up for her friend by using her artistic talent to show everyone that James was something to her.…

    Another common theme is that the main character in these stories don't really have parents. There might be a parent in the story but that parent isn't raising their kids. One major theme from this book was that the main character had a tough life and had a rough background. Despite this, he ended up being alright. The book appealed to me more in an emotional way than a logical way.…

    As a start, the theme of opening ones eyes and seeing the wrong in their "perfect" worlds. This may be illustrated in Fahrenheit 451 when Clarisse asks Montag "Are you happy" By this, Clarisse is initiating the thoughts in Montag about if the burning of books, and living his life in this way is what he really wants. She is attempting to understand if this life choice is really what Montag is content with. In the same way, Agatha begins to do the same to Anderton in her very few words of "Can you see" to him. This repeated phrase throughout the movie has the same underlying theme each time, of opening ones eyes to discovery and realizing the indignity of their world.…

    The specific audience I imagine that my paper is aimed at are adults that like short realistic fiction stories. The reason is that the story I am focusing on is “Lets Go to the Videotape”, which is a seven page realistic fiction story, and the other literatures I reference to is about realistic fiction. The literature that I write and relate to has to deal with adult situations, such a single parent in “Lets Go to the Videotape” or “Last Chance” that is about a drug addict dealing with his difficult family. These situations and plots are not suitable for young children, so it must be for an older age group. In addition, why for people that like short realistic fiction stories since majority of these literature works is no longer than 10-15…

    Throughout any piece of literature one or more themes are presented in the story. A theme is a topic or an underlying message throughout the text. Authors, like Arthur Miller, present themes through major characters' actions, their thoughts, dialogue, and character motivations. Stories have a theme to help the readers relate and to connect to their characters and to maintain the story's soul. One of the thematic ideas of The Crucible is that intimidation, dishonesty, and revenge can lead to false accusations and injustice.…

    All stories that I have read in the past have included a theme of some sort. These two are no exception. The only matter at hand is which is more important and effective. " Gifts to the Dark Gods" offered a theme that paled when compared to that of the other story. The theme was, ‘always seek aid for your problems as soon as possible.’…

    Thelma and Louise, a film by Carolyn Ann Khouri, trails the liberations of two working class women in the 90’s. These women plan a weekend away from the men in their lives due to the fact that Thelma’s husband is a misogynistic man who feels that a woman’s job consists only of housework and cooking. In the first scene of the movie Thelma wants to ask her husband, Darryl, for permission to go on the trip with Louise. He yells at her and she quickly changes the subject. In my opinion, this is one of the most crucial scenes in the entire film because it outlines the sexism and discrimination that these two women will face throughout the course of the movie.…
