To be honest, when we were first told we had to do a book report I immediately started to dread it. I continued to put off the assignment until the last month of the term. I chose to read Mark Sanborn’s, “The Fred Factor: How Passion in Your Work and Life Can Turn the Ordinary into the Extraordinary”, and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed reading this motivating book. The Fred Factor showcases a particularly cheery and helpful postman named Fred.

Tiffany M. Gill’s Beauty Shop Politics takes place during the Jim Crow era. Gill’s argument is that the role of African-American women is significant, but greatly overlooked in their tradition. These women were entrepreneurs and served their community, but their hard work and contributions went without recognition. On the first page of the Introduction, Gill mentions, “the black beauty industry since its inception has served as an incubator for black women’s political activism and a platform from which to agitate for social and political change. In so doing, I restore economics and entrepreneurship as important variables in black women’s activism and community building and argue that the beauty industry played a crucial role in the creation

“NO MORE BOOKS, STAY INSIDE AND WATCH/ TALK TO YOUR SCRIPTED FAMILY!” In Fahrenheit 451, society consists of every living soul to pertain to one another unoriginal thought and feelings; for all to agree with thoughts of one individual ultimately the one that seems more logical than the rest. The burning of the books ‘benefits’ the prevention of constructing advanced and possibly absurd aim of impressing another. Also, acts of socialization are known as one of the indications of an outcast.

After reading this book, you can clearly tell that the author focuses her book on strong female characters. To help distinguish that this is happening in the South, the author uses the oral tradition of storytelling and Southern dialects. In this eye-grabbing novel, it's not hard to identify numerous characteristics inherited from the historical significance of the town, its landscape and local customs, traditions, pride of heritage, and respect for family. The emphasis on community and the role one plays in it, religion, humor, eccentricity, race, the interaction between blacks and whites, and the connection between the past and the present are all very prominent in the story.

Reading is important for advancing someone’s education. Libraries are one place where people can visit to read without having to buy books. In the article, “The North West London Blues”, the author argues the importance of libraries. Zadie Smith uses imagery, word choice, and emotional appeal to strengthen her argument about the libraries.

Why do people risk many things? Why would someone search for a small something for a long time? Risk their lives for little reason?This happens when people undertake a mission. Aengus from “The Song Of Wandering Aengus” had to travel for many years, searching for his true love. Ernesto Galarza from “Barrio Boy” had to learn, just because he is in a new country, doesn’t mean he should be ashamed of his Mexican heritage.

Here, Faber is in his house telling Montag about how books bring life into the world. Faber is letting Montag know that books are important not because they are books, but because of their meaning. As difficult as they can be to deal with, the pores are the perfect imperfections needed to make the world great. Bradbury shows that books and knowledge are vital and that censoring books robs the world of individuality and freedom. “Give a man a few lines of verse and he thinks he’s the lord of all creation.

Neil Gaiman once wrote, “some books exist between covers that are perfectly people-shaped” (Gaiman xvi). The idea that books can be defined as the sharing of thoughts and information between people reveals a deeper meaning in Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451. In Fahrenheit 451, the protagonist faces a society in which books are censored and, thus, burned. This, according to his definition, means that if books become banned, certain connections between people will, too, be destroyed. Ray Bradbury reveals the theme (the importance of books) through the protagonist’s dynamic character, which comes as a result from his conflicts with society.

In the world today, the spread of information and data are key to societal development. Without this free flow of knowledge, technological and medical developments would never occur. Political movements and protests would never succeed. Democracy wouldn’t exist. Everything good in the world can be traced to the trading of ideas between people.

Many foods can be considered a delicacy, yes, but for some people, like Eudora Welty, the passion and insatiability can come through the stain of ink on pages. The passage from her autobiography, One Writer’s Beginnings, Eudora Welty recalls early memories of reading and books that later had an impact on her work as a writer of fiction. Welty’s language, the use of diction, metaphors, vivid imagery, and her characterization of Mrs. Calloway, her mother, and her own passion for literature reveal the intensity and value of these experiences to her. Welty’s use of language in the excerpt discussing the local librarian Mrs. Calloway reveal the importance of her and influence she had on the her future writing career.

It all started out with a bedtime story. Hugo had just emerged from after his shower and the door to the shared bathroom was wide open between the twins’ room and Thomas’s room. Warm air filled the space as Lily was tucked into bed by her mother. “I picked up a story from the library,” Ellen said. “What’s it called?”

Imagine being in school, you are really bored and have already finished all your work. All you really want to do is take out your phone and text your homies. But the rules, the stupid rules! Why is this rule made and why does it exist? Rules might not always benefit or help us.

English poetry speech Those who knew me about 5 or 6 years ago would know that I was a pretty fat kid. Shopping for clothes was never a problem though, because I could always just go into men’s sizes. For some African migrants in England in the 80s however, shopping in their size proved to be quite difficult. Good morning all, and welcome to the State Library’s poetry exhibition. Today I’m going to discuss how life is difficult for migrants, particularly large ones, who are made to feel marginalised by society – not just for their obesity, but for their race or skin colour too.
