In the collection of essays from walden by henry david thoreau had a lot of transcendentalist based statements some of which were based on the premise of nature and god. “Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads. . . .” (lines 155 from the pond in winter.)

evolution into an individual with well-placed desire to enter psychiatry, and one uniquely prepared to do so. The course of my education was dramatically improved by the move to Saudi Arabia. In Utah, my reading abilities were limited to reciting Toad of the Road from memory, and school was simply a place to play.

William Penn once said, “The jealous are troublesome to others, but a torment to themselves.” It can be said that he means to say people who are jealous of others may give others a hard time, but in the end, their feelings of jealousy will be their ultimate downfall.

There was some point made by Perschon that really added to the substance of the review. One of those meaningful points is where he discusses the symbolism between Captain Vidal and the monsters of the story; The Pale Man and the Giant Toad: showing the monstrosity “viewed through the child sight lens of Faerie” (2). Perschon says “The Pale man is another symbol of the consuming aspect of Vidal’s nature. This sick, albino creature presides over a rich, bountiful feast, but eats only…

The first part of the original research I did was an open-ended survey for both the students and teacher with a pet in their classroom at an elementary school. Only one open-ended question was asked for the teacher. “Do you like having a pet in the classroom?” The teacher thought it was helpful for the class to have an animal to help care for, teaching responsibility as well as academic subjects. “The guinea pig helps the students with learning math, science, and even helps the shy kids read…

using such words like ‘negro,’ to describe black people, Stowe is not able to establish social equality for the two races. For example Stowe gives an account in chapter twenty-five that, "No; she can't bar me, ‘cause I'm a nigger!—she'd ‘s soon have a toad touch her!
