Mount Hood

The Wolf and the Seven Young Kids By the Grimm Brothers There was once upon a time an old goat who had seven little kids, and loved them with all the love of a mother for her children. One day she wanted to go into the forest and fetch some food. So she called all seven to her and said, "Dear children, I have to go into the forest, be on your guard against the wolf, if he comes in, he will devour you all - skin, hair, and everything. The wretch often disguises himself, but you will know him…

ability to control. It does not wish to harm others and should not suffer negative consequences for something it can’t help. A werewolf can be created in a similar fashion to the vampire, by being bitten by someone who is already a werewolf. A werewolf bite is the most common way the werewolf curse is passed. A key point with werewolves is that they are usually forced to transform at the rise of the full moon. A poem found in the 1941 film “The Wolf Man” explains the experience as follows “Even…

The tale of the Little Red Riding Hood has transformed over time being passed down from generation to generation. The version of these two tales most everyone knows is the innocent story we once heard as children known as The Little Red Cap, a short story by the Grimm Brothers. Although there are innocent versions of this tale there are also versions that could be considered to be more scandalous, such as Angela Carter’s The Company of Wolves. Throughout history there have been many different…

All four characters are present in the first pages of the novel. Even though the author decided not to give a long description of each character, it is easy to understand that unlike his brother and his sisters, Edmund is an ambiguous character who can be perceived as mean, grumpy, and nasty. The author described the personality of each child, in a subtle manner. Indeed, in the first chapter, the children discuss which animal could be hidden in the mountains, each child thinks of a specific…

I love it when an old fairytale gets revamped, especially when it is done well. A Court of Thorns and Roses did not disappoint, it was still Beauty and the Beast but it also had an enticingly new aspect of faeries. Reading this was sort of like Julie Kagawa’s Iron Fey books eloped and had a child with the amazing story of Beauty and the Beast that dressed up in the finest of writing styles. I have to admit, I went into this book biased for three reasons. One, I love faeries. Two, I love Sarah J.…

Little Red Ridding Hood by Charles Perrault I have selected to read The Little Red Riding Hood by Charles Perrault. I will be analyzing The Little Red Riding Hood through a historical lens.

There was rioting against political leaders and many wars with different countries, mainly due how much land everyone wanted. The story of The Little Red Riding Hood was…

everyone was working together. There are many examples of person vs self but Rob showed this multiple times. He had implied this in that he created a turnaround time but was lenient about it because he wanted everyone to experience getting to the top of Mount Everest, but he also kept in mind that they might not all make it to the top. Rob was very caring towards all of his clients making sure they were all healthy and ready to proceed to the summit. Rob was very accepting towards the fact that…

The Three Little Pigs and the Wolf Once upon a time in a fairy tale land lived a wolf. Not the “Big Bad Wolf” who follows Little Red Riding Hood and eats Grandma, no this wolf’s name was not menacing, it was Rufus. Rufus was a smart, regular wolf who didn’t follow little girls to their grandmother’s house to eat her and the old lady. He had dark grey fur, and big, intense yellow eyes, and gnarly yellowed fangs. Now when most people see a wolf they are afraid and want to get away, but…

I can say that opposed to other versions of “Little Red Riding Hood” I have come to enjoy your version of “Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf most of all. However, I would like to know why did you decide to go straight to the part where the wolf eats the grandmother? I feel that we need to know more of about “LRRH” and how she becomes an epitome of Lara Croft. In the original version “LRRH” is perceived as a naïve young girl who takes baked goods to her sick grandmother and is eaten up by the…

Most people have heard a story book with the lines “once upon of time” at the beginning when we were younger ether from parents or a school and most girls and some guys watched a disney movie with a princess and a prince defeating the villain and living happily ever after. In reality though the books and movies that people know ,love, and still watched today are actually from a darker story with gore, death, and people with darker personalities from the movies and books that are known by many…
