The jeep screeched to a halt. They jumped out and charged up the steps to the front door then pounded on the knocker. 'Open up!' They heard a voice call, 'Don’t shout. I'm coming.' Mrs Fum opened the door and Lord Fox doffed his cap. 'I am Major Chalk from the Children’s Regiment, and this is my second in command. We must speak to His Lordship. Right this minute.' Without further ado, he strode past the open-mouthed housekeeper. Once inside the hall, he marched towards the sound of voices at the
Apprehensive To Feel Being raised in the Chicano culture in a small underprivileged metropolis which had very little community spirit, I was taught to be able to fend for myself at a young age. My family was uptight about my reputation as if our family’s honor depended on it. I was expected to be an admirable and thoughtful person to others while keeping my personal problems inside. This setting vastly affected on how I presented myself my whole life. Growing up in this environment also impacted

This novel is a supernatural/fairy tale-ish book that involves love and death. In this book, Keturah, a 16 year old female, follows a hart into the forest behind her house. She gets lost in this forest for a few days and when she was starving and thirsty a man on a horse comes up to her and tells her that her time is up and that she’ll become Lord Death’s wife.

Similarly Kirsten carries a comic book that she uses to escape her reality. Despite not having much recollection of the Arthur, the man who gave her the comic, she finds purpose in this item. Readers can deduce this from the fact that although
“You need to share your toys, Quinn.” They did not need any redirection and often resolved the situation themselves. These interactions are important for learning, as children learn from both talking and interacting with other children and adults (Arthur, Beecher, Death, Dockett & Farmer, 2008). In relation to the ages of the children, it did affect the type of interactions. Ava is 4 years of age, she is autonomous, full of energy and confident.
