“The Lorax” and “Jabberwocky” are both similar and different in many distinct ways. Doesn't one need to point them out? I can name three ways right here, right now. We can both clarify them together and you’ll see, how these stories can really be. I’ve noticed what makes the two stories actually different than one other. And also the same. Hopefully, you’ll name those ways quicker than a cheetah can run a few miles. (Of course not that fast). Why don't we get right along to those differences and similarities right away?
The themes are both very dissimilar. One, teaching us about our surroundings and the other, teaching us about ourselves and who we need to be.“The Lorax’s” theme is about nature and not to ruin the heart of the world: the land it all started on. In “The Lorax” they show us the repercussions we have to

Well, “The Lorax” and “Jabberwocky” are not all that different. They both have the use of nonsense words! “The Lorax” has many nonsense words such as “gruvvulous” and “snuvv”. Organisms have nonsense names too like “Bar-ba-loot” and “Swomee swans”. “Jabberwocky” has more use of nonsense words but still is similar to “The Lorax” in this way. Words used are “vorpal” and “gyre” and “wabe”. Organisms are also named with nonsense words for example, “Bandersnatch”, “Tumtum tree”, “Jubjub bird”. Even the title is a word not known to be! At last, a similarity! You didn’t think these stories were all that different, did you?
So “The Lorax” and “Jabberwocky” are different in the theme and antagonists with their intentions. But they were the same in using nonsense words. That’s the part that makes you laugh and realize why these are unique stories with meaning that need to be heard. I personally thought that by finding these little differences and similarities made me more connected with the stories. We should all look out for these when reading new stories, poems, and even when viewing a movie! Look deeper,
Although the stories’ main components mirror each other, they still differentiate. For example, in “The Devil and Tom Walker,” everyone believes Tom has made a deal with the devil, whereas in “Young Goodman Brown,” the author questions the actuality
Thesis Statement- Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax and Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky, though created in different time periods, share a lot of the same literary techniques and ideas. However, there are also many differences in the way word choice is used, the overall tone of the story, and whether or not there is a moral of the story.
In the book The Lorax tells the story of the Once-ler and how he started selling thneed from the truffula trees. And how the Once-ler business grew so big that that he chopped down all the truffula trees causing the Bar-ba-loots, Swomee-Swans, and humming-fish to leave. In the article talks about the importance of biodiversity for the ecosystem. The book and the article are similar by trying to conserve nature. And they differ by how they spread their message. The article is informing you about biodiversity, while the book is persuading you to care about nature.
Just like the rhyme scheme, the characters of both stories also share a multitude of similarities and differences. To begin, Dr. Seuss formated The Sneetches to have more than one main character, but in The Lorax, he only included one main character. For example, in The Lorax, the Lorax emulated the main character of the story. This is because the conflict that the Once-ler started evolved around the Lorax. Also, in most
The theme the two stories share is about growing up. In the story "Brothers are the Same" Temas had to attempt to slay a lion to prove to the Masai
Not to mention, another vast similarity between the characters in the stories is that both of the preeminent characters live in small towns where everybody knows them. This specific part of the story provides the information that they clearly knew
In a way, these two stories are similar because both the authors had carefully chosen the words they
One similarity between the two stories is they both show that no matter if it’s getting out of a cage, out of school, or even out of an uncomfortable pair of pants, freedom is so much better than without, and even if you don't desire it, it will change your life or your day, depending. Another similarity between them, is that they both come straight out with the theme. In Boy’s Life they come out and say it when the author says, “I ran out along the corridor, my arms unencumbered by books, my mind unencumbered by facts and figures, quotations and dates.” This shows you upfront the boy was very happy to be free. In “A Life Fable” this is shown when the author states, “So does he live, seeking, finding, joying, and suffering.” This also states very clearly even though the animal went through hardships freedom was better. These are most of the similarities between the two stories and how the approached their
For example, Henry Slesar writes, “Dickie puckered his brow. ‘What makes it green, though? The grass?’ ‘Nobody knows,’ his father snapped, immediately regretted his abruptness. Later in the day, it was birthday time again… An hour later, seated by the window, he watched the sun force it’s way between the clouds. ‘Dad,’ he said, ‘how far away is the sun?’ ‘Five thousand miles,’ his father said” (1).Dickie asks his father multiple questions including what makes the grass green and how far the sun is from earth. Here Dickie is curious and asking questions about everything around him. He is seeking knowledge which one can discern from that is that the theme is to seek new knowledge. This theme is different from the other theme in “All Summer in a Day”.The theme of “Examination Day” is searching for new knowledge, while the other story’s theme is to not be jealous of others. These stories despite both having a utopia style setting, the stories do not have the same theme.
while the first story related to only a slim few. Although these stories related to one another, they did not reach out to the same audience. There are only a few readers who can relate to both at the same time.

Today I will be talking about comparing and contrasting. The two stories I will be talking about is “A Simple Act” and“An Invisible Thread”. The first story we will look at is “A Simple Act”. The second story we will be looking at is “An Invisible Thread”. Here is the background to the stories.“A Simple Act”In a big city like New York, thousands of strangers from many different backgrounds cross paths every day. But they rarely stop on the street to get to know each other. When people from very different places make to effort to connect, unexpected friendships can form, and “A Simple Act” is Laura and Maurice had been friends for 15 years when he gave the final toast t the celebration of her 50th birthday. Maurice's words, and Laura's
In like manner, both authors convey the thought that beneath the surface of something, there is a deeper meaning. Within each story, characters try to avoid facing truth and live in a non-realistic state of mind. Eventually the characters from each story come to a point of realization in facing the true reality which is not as they wished it would be. This subliminal message comes from how each author displays a theme hidden within. Although both contain a hidden theme, the differentiations are the themes themselves and what each author is conveying in which the story stands for. As well as that, the diversity of the stories is the different techniques that authors utilized in bringing out the underlying message. Moreover, these two stories are similar yet different at the same time but have a common agreement to the
"Wn a bby fst ts 2 kmnikt the wrds snd gibberish. " No one knows what the baby is trying to say. The poem, "Jabberwocky," written by Lewis Carroll, uses meaningless speech to either frustrate or amuse the reader. When trying to pronounce the nonsense words in the poem, the sounds of the words come out as gibberish. The sounds are the important element of the poem. Often, people like to hear poets read in languages they cannot understand. A woman leaving a reading by the Polish poet Czeslaw Milosz said she was glad he'd read some of his work in Polish because the language sounded exciting, like horse hooves over cobblestones.
