setting The character that I picked for my historical fiction paper is Abraham Lincoln. I am going to talk about where he was assassinated, his clothing,jobs he did before he became president, and social events that happened. The location where he was assassinated was in Petersen House, Washington D.C on April 14,1865. I was even able to find out what he was watching that night. The night he died he was watching the comedy Our American Cousin. One of the reasons Lincoln may have been at the theater

This time the awareness campaign involves a real-life experiment featuring to-be mother, Sangrahi. The campaign conceptualised by Lowe Lintas, begins with hard-hitting stats – 6 million children die before they reach the age of 5. 44% of these deaths occur in the first 28 days of birth. Sangrahi’s husband and Sangrahi herself talk about their fears. In her village alone many children die before they are five.

The last time I had written an entry was before Tilly came to Dungatar. I had hoped for a new beginning, I was so tired of bottling up my secret for so long, and this secret of mine causes me extreme emotional pain. Being Sergeant Farrat, I must be the mediator, fence-sitter and peace keeper, included yet apart from the town in my role of law keeper. This suits me, as it provides me with the privacy I need to pursue my own interests behind closed doors. And before Tilly arrived, it seemed that I

English is largely considered to be the first language for the majority of the population in several countries and the second language for others.

It has been said that in life all a person needs is one person to believe in you or impact you to make a difference in one’s life.

Sonny’s Blues by James Baldwin and The Garden Party by Katherine Mansfield are very different but they have many similarities. The Garden Party is about the Sheridan family who come from an upper class family in 20th century New

There is no single definition of children's literature. It can be defined broadly as anything that children read or more specifically as fiction, non-fiction, poetry, novel, or drama. The focus of this essay will be the boyhood of Laurie in Little Women and boyhood of Jim in Treasure Island.
