The Tales of Beedle the Bard
Swoosh! That’s the sound of a wand casting a spell. When talking about magic, J.K. Rowling is a very famous author, whose name is synonymous with this subject. She was born July 31, 1965, and her nationality is British. She became very famous after the publication of the Harry Potter series. The Tales of Beedle the Bard is also one of her popular titles-this book is full of many short stories. It was originally written by J.K. Rowling. One of the short stories in this book is called, “The Three Brothers.” This famous story was also mentioned in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It is a great read, especially for those of you who, like me, enjoy an adventurous and thrilling tale.
While reading and summarizing this story, I noticed that it contains three literary elements. The elements that I found were imagery, mood, and setting. In this short story, as well as others that you may read, there are a wide variety of literary elements used to ensure liveliness and enjoyability. Many writers use imagery

With these three elements it makes up the story, and without them the story would not have been as good. I grew up with this story from watching the Harry Potter movies, and reading the actually book for Beedle the Bard. I had fun writing this story, and really think that the elements that are used in certain stories, are really what makes them have the wow factor that people are looking for. When writing a short story or talking in everyday life, you notice how many elements you actually use without knowing, and that is a reason why it can be easy to explain things by using the elements to do so. This story is a very famous book for its subject, and was very well written. I would recommend this book to somebody who enjoys magic, excitement, and writing styles like Harry

However, during an interview with Tiffany, Finders was able to get her to open up about a book the class was reading. Tiffany could recount every detail of the book and connected the book to other texts she had read.

    Henry Munoz IV 6/29/16 Per 2 Style Analysis Essay Ray Bradbury’s tone throughout the book was very subtle, plain, nothing too crazy. He doesn’t have an outrageous style when it comes to the tone part of his writing, it’s just very serious in terms of how the situation is. In some ways, you could say it’s very dark, because the main character, Montag, is very sad in some of the stories plot. I guess that’s why not too many teenagers enjoy the book because the tone isn’t very enjoyable. Bradbury’s diction in this book is very formal, which means the reader should have an expanded vocabulary while reading this.…

Although it seems like a deathly globe-renowned issue is in mainly todays -mostly in teens- current society, Sue Monk Kidd demonstrates how depression may have affected those over fifty years ago- especially the South-American colored people of the Civil Rights Era in 1964.

    The first statement mentions that “The Wife of Bath’s Tale” is a transformation story about a flawed or ugly woman who has to be rescued or restored by the right man. However, the plot that the question has stated does not appeared in both the prologue and the tale. Even though there is an appearance of an ugly old woman in the last part of the tale, it is not that she has been rescued or restored by a man. Instead, it was more like the old woman is teaching the man that he cannot judge a person by their appearance or their class in the society. As a result, I personally agree with the second idea where it said that “The Wife of Bath’s Tale” is an early tale of feminism showcasing the ways a female character gains power within a repressive,…

    He also might have gotten hurt if he hadn't known about the Order. Something could have happened with him that interfered with their plans, or he could have done something that got himself into trouble or got himself injured. This shows in Harry's creation of Dumbledore's Army. Due to Harry's choice of a name, Dumbledore has to flee Hogwarts to avoid being taken away because they're breaking the rules and the Ministry tried to crack down on them for doing that. Another example of people intentionally being kept in the dark with this motif is through the secret of magic.…
