    the weapons I've made. I made the armour and shield used by Achille's, Hercules's armour and shield, and Zeus's and Athena's aegis shield or breastplate, I can't remember which piece it was, but I did use goat skin. I even made the first woman, Pandora. I even had made the shackles used to hold Prometheus.

This makes the story of Gaiman’s and Madea parallel, since they both end up…

It encompasses the broad spectrums of age, cognitive, physical and emotional development, environment and the political parameters that sanction child to adult transitions. (James. A. & James, A. 2008 ) Also Complicating this is the notion by Sorin and Galloway(2006) that childhood is socially and culturally…
