A Little Deeper

don’t know” the man said. “We have all the time in this world to do whatever we want. I knew you were coming, I just did not know when!” he said with a chuckle, “Come in! I want to watch something with you!”. Koaye says yes and they walk inside the little house. Inside, it looks modest and is full of color compared to the outside land. The floor is a lush green with a marvelous tangerine orange on the walls with a light absorbing black on the ceiling. Koaye feels at home immediately. In front…

Percival, I’m here, I’m here! I have my own sword and everything!” On a stifling summer morning in Camelot, Sir Percival turned and saw a little boy, about age five or six, bounding toward him. The young boy’s shaggy brown hair bounced as he raced forward, and his cheeks were flushed bright pink due to exertion. Only a few paces away from Percival now, the little boy tripped over the too-large sword he carried, and the weapon went sailing into the air. Percival was forced to duck to avoid the…

Once there was a little boy who lived in the countryside with his mother. Every weekend the little boy’s grandfather would come to visit the little boy. One weekend while the little boy and his grandfather were talking, the little boy wanted a story. He wanted a story that told about why things are. So his grandfather told him a story about why it floods. The story went a little something like this: “Once upon a time there was a boy named Timmy. Timmy lived in the big city with his parents. The…

this mindset for as long as I can remember; I’ve always believed that living a life without being audacious isn’t a life worth having. You need to be impulsive. Try new things without worrying about the outcome, because if you do, you won’t enjoy the little things in life nearly as much. But things can go wrong, and they do. All the time. Sometimes creating and trying new things don’t work the way you want them to. That’s just life. But It shouldn’t stop you from doing bold things. I have had…

The Manhattan Project was the codename for the classified government inquiry project to build atomic bombs. The scientists needed to work swiftly for the enemy’s attempt to build atomic bombs. The Manhattan Project took a stand by racing against the clock to develop atomic bombs. It also took a stand in World War II, in science, and in politics. World War II took place from 1939 to 1945. The main countries that supported Hitler’s regimes were Germany, Italy, and Japan. The other side…

A lot of our history has consisted of a lot of mistakes that have caused loss of life, hatred, and chaos. These mistakes have mostly been made by people, leaders, and governments who are so caught up in their emotions that they don’t think of the consequences that their actions will cause. In John Hersey’s Hiroshima, Hersey uses our past differences to consider the effects of actions on innocent people, so that nations will only use atomic or highly destructive weapons as a last resort.…

My book is a biography of George Muller, The Guardian of Bristol’s Orphanage, by Janet & Geoff Benge. This is a really good Christian book. George Muller is Christian from Germany. In Bristol, a lot of people were dying from cholera, so they held a prayer meeting together to encourage one another. He assured that Bristol, where he is at now, is the mission field. In the mission field, he made breakfast club for the starving children who don't have home or parents or food to eat.…

Cinderella stories have changed over time due to the different cultures around the world. There are countless versions of the original story, all from different perspectives. Out of the many stories that I read, my favorites are the Chinese Cinderella and the French Cinderella. I like these because they are completely different from the original Cinderella story. In the Chinese Cinderella, the magic helper is the fish’s bones. However, in the French Cinderella, the magic helper is her godmother.…

Like a Professor for Kids, Foster uses a first-person point of view to present techniques to truly analyze literature. More specifically, he elaborates on the idea that all characters go on quests to discover themselves. This theme is represented in Little Women, where Louisa May Alcott tells the story of four sisters, Jo, Amy, Meg, and Beth, as they go through the everyday struggles of life and love and blossom into women. As the girls grow older, the people they meet on their journeys away…

Disney has been ruining the expectations of young children! For years Disney has set unrealistic portrayals of both men and women through their films. It has lead to young children to believe in certain false beauty standards and relationship advice. Disney does not take into consideration the diversity within women. All Disney princesses have outstanding hair, mesmerizing eyes, clear skin, perfect teeth, and a gym-worthy figure. However, in the real world this is definitely almost never the…
