She was able to identify the theme of the week (ex: the theme is fairy tales [three little pigs] she was able to tell me that there was the three little pigs on the
as obvious, Oates also uses a brief reference to “The Three Little Pigs”. The story references the wolf in “Little Red Riding Hood”: “...the jaw and chin and cheeks slightly darkened, because he hadn't shaved for a day or two, and the nose long and hawk-like, sniffing as if she were a treat he was going to gobble up...” (Oates 510). Arnold was very much like the wolf as he also disguised himself. The subtle reference to “The Three Little Pigs” is noticed towards the end of the story when Arnold,
In "The Uses of Enchantment" writer Bruno Bettelheim states that fairy tales allow children to "find themselves" and "[...] find the other with whom they will be able to live happily ever after" (162); I agree with this because fairy tales present lessons in simple forms to help the child grasp the concepts, present daily life issues and anxieties, and allows children to understand the difference between good and bad.

While Ralph wants a fire, Jack wants a pig, and Ralph notices this much so that he says “All you can talk about is pig, pig, pig” (Golding 57). Jack’s key to surviving on the island is the hunting of the pigs, while Ralph holds on to this dream that the fire will lead to their rescue. It is interesting as the reader in the book seeing how living on the island shapes what is
statute laws fail for example in the case of the National Rivers Authority (NRA) and Anglers Co-operative association v Clark (1994). In this case a pig farmer (Mr Clarke) released three million gallons of slurry into a 75km stretch of the river Sapiston and Little Ouse which subsequently destroyed a fishery [2]. The NRA attempted to prosecute the pig farmer under sections of the Control of Pollution act 1974 and the Salmon and Freshwater Fisheries act of 1975 [2]. The court of appeal ruled that the
experience these dismemberments, but pigs suffer most when it comes to disfigurement and traumatic living conditions. These animals are stressed by crowding which causes them to injure their pen mates. This is why pigs have their tails docked, along with their ears clipped and teeth cut. All of this is done without anesthetic. Pregnant sows
honestly widened my view on life's hardships. Reading Ellen Foster, Lord of the Flies, and To Kill a Mockingbird truly stretched my imagination. Each book had their own twists and turns, but I believe they all linked in amazing ways. One way all three novels connected in my opinion, would be how tenacious kids are when they are required to overcome adversity. In Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, there is a plane crash which abandoned a large amount of boys with no parental guidance on an
