The text states, “You’re making such smogulous smoke”(Seuss line 13). This uses the word smogulous which is a nonsense word. The author chose to use this word because this adds more fun to the story. This affects the story because not only do you have to figure out what this word means it adds a different effect to the story. In comparison, the story the Jabberwocky uses similar nonsense words to affect the poem. The text states, “And, as in uffish thought he stood, The Jabberwock, with eyes of…

(“What do you think?" shouted Razumihin, louder than ever, "you think I am attacking them for talking nonsense? Not a bit! I like them to talk nonsense. That's man's one privilege over all creation.

This essay is about October Sky. It's about a kid named Homer that wants to build a rocket. What inspired him was a Russian satellite he seen in the sky. The theme in the story is don't give up on your dreams. I think that's the theme is because Homer never starts with it he did not care what other people said about his rocket. Homer was not good at math but he pushed himself to learn it he was a nice person and he had help with a smart kid in school that did not have any friends. He knew…
are based off of his personality; however, some of them are based of other people that were in his life or that he had just seen.
