Giver
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 336.... were successfully escaped from the country and they went to a village.
The story was told as a third person point of view. I enjoyed this story because it shows that how Jonas stands up against what he thought was wrong. The place was suppose to be a utopia turns out to be a dystopia to Jonas. It shows that how the people acts in the real life. How they act to be honest but they are actually lying.

Robert Frost
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 933.... Frost wrote poems whose philosophical dimensions transcend any region.

Gods In The Iliad
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 829.... the Greeks. Being the god of the sea, Poseidon was another strong supporter of the ocean-faring Greeks. Whenever Zeus turned his back, he tried to help the Greeks in the fight. He felt that he was somewhat Zeus's equal as his brother, but recognizing Zeus's authority and experience, he looked to Zeus as an elder. Some Gods favored the Trojan side of the conflict. Both Apollo and Artemis gave aid to the city of Troy. Although Artemis takes a minor role, Apollo, perhaps angered by Agamemnon's refusal to ransom Khryseis, was constantly changing the course of the war in favor of t .....

Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 422.... Cut the heat-
Plow through it,
turning it on either side
of your path.
The reader can clearly see the heat being pushed out of the way by an

white chickens". The contrasting colors that he uses seem real and
multi .....

Japanese fisherman, Kabuo (accused of murdering Carl Heine), the ownership of
this land promises a secure future and ultimately independence. “...she knew
that Kabuo wanted a strawberry field.. not .....
