Analysis Of What Pet Should I Get? By Theodor Seuss

Theodor Seuss Geisel, or as he is more commonly known Dr. Seuss, was an American writer and illustrator for some of the most popular children's’ books in existence. He sold over 600 millions copies and had his book translated into 20 languages by his death. Geisel adopted the pseudonym Dr. Seuss after college when he started animating and illustrating. He worked as political cartoonist for the New York Newspaper and he also made cartoons for Vanity Fair and Life. After WWII, Geisel started making children's books. Some of his most notable books were, If I Ran the Zoo, Horton Hears a Who!, The Cat in the Hat, and Green Eggs and Ham. Dr. Seuss always kept his eyes open and never let an opportunity pass by him.

In the short story Beware of the Dog by Ronald Dahl we learn about a World War ll, British pilot named Peter Williamson. In the beginning of the story he gets injured and falls out of his plane. When he wakes up he is in a hospital which the nurse says is in Brighton, England. As the story continues he begins to get suspicious about where the hospital actually is. He knows that the water in Brighton is not hard water yet the water in the hospital is hard. He also hears planes and knows that they are German planes and they shouldn’t be in England during the day. He eventually crawls to the window and figures out that he is actually in France,based on a French sign he sees outside of the hospital. France was occupied by Nazi Germany during WWll

Characters are a vital element of fiction; without them, a story falls apart because the readers are forced to only focus on its plot, setting, or other aspects of fiction. Characterization is the process in which the author describes the distinctive nature or features of a particular character. A character is often characterized by their own dialogue, actions, thoughts, appearance, and interpretation by the author or by other characters in the story. Through these methods, an author can really bring their characters to life for the reader. In “My Kid’s Dog,” Ron Hansen uses these methods to bring all his characters to life. He portrays the strained relationship an owner has with his ‘daughter’s’ pet dog, and the difficulties overcoming his hardships. Through methods of characterization, Hansen unveils the friction between the dad and the dog and allows the reader to empathize with them, incorporating humor throughout the story, as well.

The domestic dog has to be one of the most unique animals that the human had ever bred. All dogs were formed differently and for separate reasons; whether it be for their looks or for their personal attributes, the dog has been evolved around humans and yet many breeds were created by humans themselves. I also believe that having a dog is a necessity to having a balanced life, just how Cesar Millan was quoted on the Brainy Quote web page “The dog can only become what's in your bubble. The dog is imitating the energy that is in your bubble. You are the source, the feast of energy. If you feel anxious, the dog becomes anxious with you. If you become nervous, the dog wakes up nervous with you”. Your dog runs off of your actions and emotions

This poem and memoir have many similarities because they both have the same message hidden in them. Dr. Seuss did exhibit it more than Shriver, but Shriver was more formal in his tone. The main message in both of these passages were to listen to whatever motivation that’s in your life, telling you to keep going forward. Dr. Seuss and Mark Shriver talk about journeys that have been taken or soon to be, along with the encouragement to go with it. During a long journey, not everything will go as planned.

Seuss wrote two books that were quite different from all the others. His last novels focused less on being for children and were made for people of all ages. One book titled You’re Only Old Once which focused on the new things Dr. Seuss experienced and dealt with as an old man. One common theme of these final two books was a much darker tone and a more mature story. Dr. Seuss held pride in these last two books because he could finally consider himself an author instead of just a children’s author (Contemporary Authors).

Many of his books have been translated into 20+ languages around the world. Dr. Seuss’s Publisher thought he was getting too prideful and bet him 50 dollars that he couldn’t write a book using only 50 different words. Not wanting to deny the challenge, Ted successfully accomplished this challenge by publishing Green Eggs and Ham, and he likes to point out that he was never paid the 50 dollars. Towards the end of his life, Dr. Seuss wrote for eight hours a day and took very few breaks in his garden to dream and imagine. His very last book that he published was Oh the Places You Will Go!

Theodore Seuss Giesel, often referred to by his family and friends as Ted, better known to his fan as Dr. Seuss was born on March 2, 1904 in Springfield, Massachusetts. He was married twice, never having any children of his own but acquiring two step children with his second marriage. When asked why he became a children’s writer, he would reluctantly answer that he became a children’s writer because of his great understanding of children, then proceed into detail of the real story. He worked for a publication company by the name of Flit which placed strict rules and prohibitions on his work. However, they failed to prohibit the writing of children’s books so that is the route which Dr. Seuss took. His first book, An ABC of Fanciful Creatures was rejected by many publishers. After a rocky start, Dr. Seuss went on to publish many children’s books including And to Think That I Saw It on

I want to thank Professor Grigsby for the academic support by teaching me how to draw upon ideas from the book and emotional support by kindly talking with me about random things and making me feel more confident in writing. I want to thank Andrea Green for helping me brainstorm the prompt for my essay; without her helpful, it would be difficult to start. I also want to thank my dog Taozi for giving me reference and inspiration to write this piece and my brother for connecting the video chat with Taozi in China and me.

I understand both sides of the “Brig your dog to work program”, but I don’t think it is a good idea. I have a dog and I love dogs, but many people aren’t as comfortable around them because some dogs bite, or act badly when they’re stressed out. Just like people do, dogs get stressed when they’re introduced into new enviroments, and they might get stressed, they may act wonderful around the house or around people they know, but that doesn’t mean they will act well to changes.

The first book he released was Fish Out Of Water. His wife Helen wrote the poem and he drew the art. Dr. Seuss felt that the art quality was the most important part of a book. A few years later, Helen died of a long illness. After remarrying to Audrey Stone Diamond, he continued on with his

Out of the three stories, “The Flowers”, “The Dogs Could Teach Me”, and “The Sniper”, “The Dogs Could Teach Me” by Gary Paulsen, applied the best use of descriptive language. Paulsen demonstrates incredible word choice to really help the reader understand the pain he is feeling throughout the story. This gut wrenching, action packed story is all shown very well by the use of description that Gary presented, to the point where he made the reader feel like he was in the main character's shoes. In the story, the main character could not control his dog sled as he was sledding over ice and snow when he soon shot off the edge of a canyon.

The German Shepherd is not only one of the world's most popular companion dogs, but also probably the most widely used breed for service work. The development of the German Shepherd Dog, along with a number of existing breeds, helped pioneer the modern use of dogs for service and community work that we can see today. For a breed of dog that has only been officially recognised for just over 100 years, it has made an outstanding contribution to mankind worldwide.

In A Dog’s Purpose, W. Bruce Cameron portrays the compelling, heart wrenching perspective of life through the eyes of a man’s best friend as they fulfill their purpose in life. The perspective of the puppy’s character travels through various dog breeds, each with a goal to achieve its purpose for a designated human. Once that duty has been fulfilled and the dog’s time has come, the puppy spirit awakens again into a new dog’s body with more knowledge than before, more awareness than the last, and a bigger understanding of life. The puppy spirit then starts its journey all over again, with another purpose to accomplish.
