Without awaiting an answer, she grabbed her wand, extinguished the light, and tapped it against the book. An exact copy appeared with a quiet pop and an excess of sparks. Whoever invented that Charm had a good sense of humour. There was another rustle from somewhere in the room. “Lumos.” The wand flew out of her hand again and floated in mid-air, illuminating both books and nothing else. Shaking her head, she returned to the books. No matter how many fearsome adventures she had faced, nothing…
The Triangle Shirtwaist Company factory fire took place in New York City on March 25, 1911, killing 145 workers. This is a very infamous incident that happened in the American industrial history because the deaths could have been avoided; most of the victims died as a consequence of neglected safety features and locked doors within the factory building. This tragedy finally brought awareness to the dangerous sweatshop environments within the factories, and led to the growth of a series of…
An inference I can make about a relationship between two characters is the relationship between Harry and Hagrid. Since Hagrid told Harry the truth about his parent. “But you must know about your mom and dad,” he said. “I mean, they’re famous. You’re famous.” Hagrid said this to Harry in Chapter 4, after bursting into the hut on the island where Mr. Dursley has brought Harry to escape the magical letters. Hagrid’s was surprise at Harry’s ignorance of himself and of his family underscores the…
The character with the most leadership that I noticed was Hiccup. He has a lot of pressure on him being Stoick the Vast’s son, and he’s not really a Viking at all. Watching How To Train Your Dragon is like reading a Mark Twain novel; you watch the boy grow up. In the beginning of the movie Hiccup is more of a burden to the village than helpful. Nevertheless at the end Hiccup leads the other teenagers in Dragon Training to save the villagers from the dragon’s nest. That is a big turning point…
I chose the children’s book How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss (Theodor Geisel). This book’s original copyright year is 1957 and is at reading level P with an interest level of grades K-3. I compared this original story to its remake into a comedy movie, How the Grinch Stole Christmas directed by Ron Howard, produced by both Ron Howard and Brain Grazer, staring Jim Carrey as the Grinch. This movie rendition of this Dr. Seuss classic was originally released on November 17th, 2000. The…

Harry Potter is a movie series filled with fantasy scripted from a series of seven novels written by J.K Rowling. It talks about how little Harry Potter survived a deadly attack on his family by the darkest wizard in the “world” and how he is supposed to destroy the killer of his parents. (Columbus, 2001-2011). Structuralists believe that the world is governed by rules and codes and so in giving meaning to a text such as this, these structural codes or rules must not be broken. However, there is…
Diary of a Young Girl: Anne Frank Diary of a Young Girl is a beloved book all around the world, translated in over 70 languages. Distributing over 30 million copies, it is the most read book under the Bible. The book and the movie have similar key details but many differences about minor ones. Both the book and the diary were absolutely amazing. The diary was a lot more popular than the book because the book has more details about Anne’s life than the movie. The movie also tells about the…
Praised for its gripping story and stellar acting, Stranger Things quickly became a monster hit over a little period of time. Starring a group of Dungeon & Dragons playing kids who bike around while communicating on their walkie-talkies, the series brought a heavy dose of eighties nostalgia with a rather rare authenticity. This stylish take on the tropes of the eighties with an undeniable amount of sci-fi and horror, not to forget homages, tells the story of a 12 year old named Will who will…
