When flowers blossom from winter’s frost, the palm tree bride marries the whispering forest. Over Mamatuck village, mountains soared, their peaks frosted like the tips of meringue frosting. The moon, faded an opaque milky white, hung plump and low on the horizon. Behind the jagged mountain cliffs, the sun began to stretch its weary rays, blessing the earth with warmth and light. One by one, the stars twinkled out of the lavender sky and up into the cosmos, where they will wait

Anteaters are edentates. Edentates are animals that do not have teeth. Anteaters do not eat apples, but they eat about 30,000 ants and terminates a day. The anteater uses its large sharp claws to rip open an anthill or termite mound. Then he uses a very long, sticky tongue to catch them. Anteaters walk on their knuckles so their long claws don’t hurt them. A baby anteater is called a pup and rides on its mom’s back for about a year. When an anteater feels threatened, it will stand on its hind legs

Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation was founded in 1863 when Mr. Henry Williams purchased Old Fort Park and donated it to the city of Fort Wayne.

Journal 1 The first chapter of “The Maze Runner” really gets me excited for the rest of the book. I enjoy how it leaves the reader plenty of room to wonder what will happen later in the book. It has an interesting vocabulary that includes some of the slang words that the people of the glade made up. It seems that the plot of the book will quicken very quickly as already there is a lot of foreshadowing hinting toward some unknown beast and a giant maze. I predict that Thomas’s arrival will trigger

Earth, home of billions of people and thousands of different animal species, under goes changes every night and every day. Some changes take years to be noticeable and others can be noticed right away. Climatic warming, also known as global warming has been causing changes that Earth and its inhabitants have been dealing with over the years. Climatic/global warming is the average temperature of Earth's near-surface air and ocean over a period of time. Earth is similar to a green house because a green

Of all kinds, it’s got all the known organisms in the galaxy loaded to its database, only one like it in the whole universe—as far as I know,” replied Clint. “Oh, so are you saying my mom was actually an alien imposter. Perhaps some giant beetle from outer space,” retorted Jack, rolling his eyes at the preposterous idea. “No, it was actually a Nagual,” said Clint. “A what? You are crazy!”

Today, many people, when they think of the unicorn, picture something out of a child’s fantasy; something that can not and has not existed. However, as scientists look back on cultures around the world, they find something very different. They find evidence from countries far apart, that the unicorn was extraordinarily popular, and that many believed in its existence (“Myth and Origin”). Though specific details of its appearance and/or behavior have differed, many aspects about unicorns

Chapter Eighteen A Mine Full of Chaos “Madison, wake up.” I stirred to Seth poking my arm with his nose the way a cat might nudge a dead dung beetle with its paw. I could hear the drip, drip, drip of the water dribbling down the mineshaft’s walls, but I couldn’t move. I glanced at the horizon, trying to fight my way out of the daze. Two guys wearing leather jackets and dark sunglasses stood framed in the opening against a backdrop of dark orange twilight. “What did I miss?” Seth gestured to the

During the Victorian Era there were many key people alive including Queen Victoria, Florence Nightingale, Benjamin Disraeli, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and Charles Dickens. These were all famous people during the Victorian Era. Some important scientists include Charles Darwin, and Alexander Bell. These were both very important scientist and without them we might not have some of the basic necessities of the modern day. Now you might be wondering to yourself what did these guys, and girls have to do
