Do you think that colors can represent certain things, such as hope, hopelessness, and loneliness? And, do you believe that colors can represent books? Well, I do because the color white represents the book Of Mice & Men because white represents hope, hopelessness, and loneliness, and those three themes are introduced frequently throughout the book.

Many books, movies, and TV shows depict a character as the hero. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone isn’t any different from the stories that came from the Babylons.

For this unit, I completed 2 independent reading books: The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. These 2 books are completely different. The Lord of the Rings was a more challenging book because there was more description and harder words, where the Harry Potter book was an easier read because it’s a book I’ve read before. On my HSPE reading assessment I got 100 percent. I could read the questions and find that answer with several examples from the text.

Harry potter and the prisoner of Azkaban is an excellent book. Out of ten stars I would rate this one an eight because it was to short. Once you get into it and finish it. It seems so short, because it is so interesting. Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban starts out with a bang.

Colors are often used in literature as symbols to represent various ideas, qualities and themes. In his book, The Great Gatsby, Scott F. Fitzgerald has used a wide range of colors to represent the major themes of the book and the personalities and possessions of his characters. Fitzgerald has predominantly used the color green and yellow in contrast with gold to highlight the major theme of the difference in classes of Tom and Gatsby, and gray to portray the status of Wilson who is unlike Tom and Gatsby. The author has also frequently used the color white in this book, especially when describing Daisy’s appearance and character. Another important color mentioned by the author is blue which is strongly connected to Gatsby’s false thoughts and

White. A color full of hope, simplicity, and goodness. You can find all of these characteristics in George and Lennie from the book Of Mice and Men. Lennie and George had the hope to live their American Dream. Lennie and George's relationship, hopes, and dreams were simple. They didn't need lots of money or materials to keep them happy. Lennie and George are good people. They are kind and are always there for each other. Even after the events in the end of the book I still believe they are good people. All of these reasons are examples of why I think the book should be white. It represents the characters hope, simplicity, and goodness.

This textbook has a very soft, pastel yellow background. The title is a smaller, sans-serif, cornflower blue font. About ¾ of the book cover is covered by an image that looks much like a patchwork quilt and can give people a warm fuzzy feeling as it may remind them of grandma’s house. The cover of this book is warm and inviting telling you to come right in and see what writing is all about.

Could you ever imagine if The Wonderful Wizard of Oz written by L. Frank Baum didn’t have a yellow brick road or an Emerald City?

In the novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Baum’s use of color is symbolic by associating distinct colors with specific settings and characters.

Have you ever read the Harry Potter series? I bade you to read the Harry Potter series. I have three reasons why you should read the novel, and they are: if you like magic, if you like wizards and witches, if you like suspense, then read the Harry Potter series. However, if you haven’t read the series, here is a brief description of the first book of the novel: “The Fantasy Novel, ‘Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone’, By J.K. Rowling is about a boy named Harry Potter who was a one year old that was left on the doorstep of his mother’s sister’s house, (Petunia Dursley). His Aunt and her husband, Vernon Dursley, accepted Harry. Eleven years later Harry Potter receives a letter from one of the best schools of Witchcraft and Wizardry named Hogwarts, a school for magic people. When Harry finds out he is a wizard, he sets off for Hogwarts, where he finds that he is very famous because of his lightning shaped scar and his great Quidditch skills. He also meets many kind people and his very first best friends, named Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger. Harry, Ron, and Hermione survive all the way to the end of the novel, where they discover that the Sorcerer’s Stone is about to be stolen, so Harry Ron, and Hermione try to save the stone. Finally Harry Potter alone reaches the stone where he meets the thief of the stone, the Dark Lord. There he most importantly finds a path he must take later in the series to overtake the Dark Lord, if he could survive his destiny.” After reading

The movie adaptation of J.K Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is a very pivotal movie in the series. Like the book, this movie is crucial in setting up an understanding for the rest of the series. Therefore it is important that the movie complements the novel as much as possible. Using one of the most essential features of a movie; visual imagery, the movie adaptation of the fourth novel is a good accompaniment for the novel. The visual imagery in this movie emphasizes emotions and reactions that we cannot possibly obtain from the book. For example, the death of Cedric Diggory at the end of the movie strikes a powerful emotional response as a result of his father, Amos Diggory’s grief. Seeing him cry makes the audience more
