The Apprentice

The two novels, Crispin: Cross of Lead by Avi and The Midwife’s Apprentice by Karen Cushman have many similarities, yet many differences. Both novels received Newbery Awards. The Midwife’s Apprentice received the Newbery Award in 1996 and Crispin received the Newberry Award in 2003. However, winning the Newbery Award is not the only thing these two novels have in common. Both novels take place in Medieval England in the 14th century. Another similarity is that both of the main characters in the…

The Most Valuable Apprentice I had never thought that two weeks of working in the hospital would give me so much experience that I could not get from anywhere else. Two years ago when I had an exchange year in Germany, I aimed to gather as much of the new experiences as I can in order to know more about the people, the culture, and the world.

but a carpenter’s apprentice is quite similar despite the job difference. An oilfield hand’s job requires him to do whatever it takes to get his pay from the oil in the ground, while a carpenter in training needs to help get a house built at all costs. The two jobs seem different, but at the same time they also require some similar qualities. Some similarities might make them hard to tell apart from each other. Even though being an oilfield hand and being a carpenter’s apprentice might both…

five exemplify this: “My bonds in thee are all determinate. / For how do I hold thee but by thy granting,” The writer here is admitting to having a power over the apprentice in a binding, perhaps by a mutual agreement.
