In the preoperational stage, children are becoming capable of crude abstract thought with the ability to reason, and symbolic function which allows them to…

The Maurice Sendak epigraph references this idea about children and their ability to comprehend road blocks in life better than adults can. The last two sentences say, “ But I mustn't let adults know I knew. It would scare them.” Children know more than adults think, they see the wide eyes to tell someone to stop talking, of the moving lips, but…

“The Way We Live Now: 11-11-01; Lost and Found,” interested me because of your perspective on creating my own personal New York. As you mention at the end of your essay, I am part of what you call, “those new kids on the block,” in fact, I would call myself the newest kid on the block (CITATION). I am originally from a rural town in Pennsylvania and have come to New York City to not only educated myself through my classes, but also through examining the city. However, after reading your essay, I…

As well as Fredrick Larkin, who served as the contractor for the building.

of worries and sadness. Having a tower you built being bulldozed down. All of the building blocks of confidence, friends, family, happiness. All that being taken away, all your building blocks. Having to start over. Being born again in the same body, having to start again and rebuild. Rebuilding is a hard process.

One four year and eight month little girl named Emmie was the one child who was able to build the tallest, self-standing tower. I did not think to count to see how many blocks she used, but I would assume that she used at least eight blocks to build this tower. According to the Motor Skills Development…
