Prince Hans, voiced by Santino Fontana, was introduced as Anna’s love interest, but later revealed to be the villain. I heard a theory that Hans was based off the mirror in “The Snow Queen,” and there is a little bit of evidence to support this. His personality and motivations are constantly changing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSLv9cYOA6M He’s upbeat and awkward when he’s with Anna, he’s quiet when he’s with Elsa, he throws his weight around when he’s with the diplomats, and he even shows…

ED 734 Story Evaluation Candidate Name: Ryshique Williams “Good children’s literature appeals not only to the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child”, Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe. I chose this quote to introduce my assignment because after reading the book “When I Grow Up”, by Misty Copeland I can clearly understand why my niece Kayden purchased this book. She and the author have a love of dance in common. It’s in both of their hearts, and once something becomes a part of you…

parodies its commercialization, while Burgess attacks the mob mentality of religious people and Vonnegut explores the meaninglessness of religious practice. In Survivor, ‘the good people of Tender Branson Enterprises’ take the shameless commercialization of religion to hilarious extremes. This is illustrated by the tacky merchandizing of Tender’s religious fame such as ‘the Bible Diet…the book Money-Making Secrets of the Bible…The Tender Branson Dashboard Statuette.’ Tender himself is acutely…

Persephone ((The story of Persephone is quite commonly known of Greek mythology. Yet, it can be argued that as more and more editions of the story were told, the original was quite different. Whilst the tale told is of a young girl kidnapped by Hades and tricked into staying with him, another lesser known version tells the story of a young woman who sought adventure and chose to visit and then stay with the Lord of the Underworld. This version, deserves to be told. With a new setting to reflect…

young age with images of what the society considers beautiful and aesthetic. The reality television series “Toddlers and Tiaras” representing the lives of participants in children beauty pageants is another example. We are faced with beauty in fairy tales and TV shows at an age when we can barely think yet subconsciously these examples influence later our thinking. “Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the prettiest of them all?”…

Kong The Adventurous “Thank you Mom but I can do it on my own.” My mom glanced back at me with a blank expression. “KONG! You can do somethings on your own, I know you can, but somethings… you are just too young of a unicorn.” My mom explained to me firmly. “I guess!” I confessed. Me and my parents live together in a magical place known as Uni-Landia, where all the amazing unicorns of the world live. Me and my family live outside (like all unicorns do) right off of Rainbow Dash Street. The…

Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility has been a literary classic since it was published in 1811. Because of this, it has been adapted several times throughout the years, including a theatrical performance in 2017. This performance changed the story in many different and unusual ways, some of which consist of making Mrs. Ferrars (the mother of deuteragonist Edward Ferrars) into a hand puppet because they did not have enough actors to play all the roles. However, among its many differences there…

A simile is when two different objects are compared using like or as. Strasser writes, “Jodie and Dakota froze like meerkats on TV” (20). The author chose to use a simile to show how Jodie and Dakota froze like meerkats on TV. The word like is the word that shows a simile is being used in this quote. In this part of the story, Callie is having a flashback, as she is at her friend Katherine’s house. The girls are talking about true love, and if they have ever experienced it before. In addition,…

Throughout the course of The Canterbury Tales, Chaucer introduces many characters with distinct traits to identify each role in this society. These characters are stereotypes of individuals who Chaucer encountered. All of these characters stand apart from one another; however, there are a few miniscule similarities between a few of the characters. Chaucer stereotypes the characters for the following reasons: to bring change to the current system, to easily visualize each character, and to…
