Erin Hunter

The name of my book is Warriors: Into the Wild by Erin Hunter. I chose this book because I like cats and warrior cat clans sounded interesting to me. I chose the first book to read so I could start at the beginning of the Warrior story. Warriors is interesting because the warrior clans live like Indian tribes would live. It is interesting that Erin Hunter is a made up name that represents the names of the five authors that write the Warriors books. Into the Wild probably takes place in the country in America. There is only one road in the story which is called the Thunderpath by the clans. There is a river that runs through Riverclan territory and wooded areas where Fourtrees is located which is where the clans meet each full moon. This is also where the…

Kurapika had no idea how long he lay in Leorio’s arms, winded and trembly, listening to the soft whir of the ceiling fan overhead. It couldn’t possibly have been for more than a minute or two — and yet, to him, it was as if a probable eternity had passed, and in that eternity Leorio had shown him that there were stars lurking just behind his eyelids. Kurapika propped himself up on one elbow, a little alarmed by how tired he was, and raked his sweaty bangs off his face with a strengthless hand.…

doing things. Another way would be to increase food productivity by farming more efficiently. Better preparation of the soil would help increase the yield of a crop, and deeper digging and turning of the soil is part of soil improvement. The digging stick developed into a hoe with a cutting edge, and the hoe evolved into a plough, which dug a deeper and continuous furrow. Even a simple plough was nearly impossible for one person to manage. Working a plough required two people, one to pull, and…

I recently watched the movie Freedom Writers, directed by Richard LaGravenese took place in Woodrow Wilson high school in Los Angeles, California in 1992. The film was about a highly inspiring teacher Mrs. Erin Gruwell who is fresh out of college, played by actress Hilary Swank. The story line is about integration, high school students that are not interested in learning, in light of the lifestyles they live. The setting of the movie was based in a low poverty area that involved gang life, black…

Nobody Left to Hate and Freedom Writers Cognitive psychology focuses on studying how the environment a person lives in affects his or her behavior. In the mid 1950s, researchers started looking into external factors rather than internal processes to explain why people act a certain way. Cognitive research revolutionized and become the dominant approach in psychology by the late 1970-1980s. Then, many people started creating strategies to influence people’s behavior to change. In 1990, Erin…

efficient way throughout the movie. With that being said, I must announce The Freedom Writers Diary was the original title, hence it first came out published as a book in 1999. With such powerful stories, I believe the reason the director Richard LaGravenese chose to produce this into a movie is because he wanted to show the reality and let the voices of these young 14-16-year-olds be heard. He felt the need of showing the world the violence they are surrounded with, and fear they live with…

Freedom Writers Freedom Writers was a very touching movie about the different gang lives people have to go through every day.

Nothing in these kids life is given to them for free they have to work so hard to get what they want. When they get a new teacher they all disrespect her at first. All of…
