    him. To this, I say that Batman just never wants to stop being a hero, so he keeps the Joker alive. The same cannot be said, or written, about the Joker. The only reason the Joker becomes so obsessed with Batman is because he wants to make a point. The Clown Prince wants the Dark Knight to really kill him. He wants it this way because he wants the world to know that people are basically more chaotic than orderly, which makes people, or readers, wonder if this is actually true. Finally, the one…

    to see him so upset. A new emotion swept over me. Suddenly all I wanted to do was to make him happy again. I laid in bed, staring at the clock beside me. 1:45 am, it read. I closed my eyes and the ideas that he had put in my head began to echo through-out my mind. A visual of his pale face stained with green and purple wouldn't leave my head. They're the crazy ones not me, they're the crazy ones not me... Letting out a yell of frustration, I threw the sheets off of my bed and rushed out of the…

Not all, but many teenagers can relate to this book's target (to understand the consequences of bullying). And that it’s a horrific thing to do to others and that there…

    Development of a Research Question Having picked my topic of interest “The Harley Davidson Biker” I needed to explore options for the question. I started out with “What is the culture of the Harley Davidson biker?”. That was too small; there was very little information.
