While they were playing, storms were building up just outside of Hutch. When I walked out to my truck, I noticed that the storms had come closer and closer. Also while I was walking, it started to lightly

The Bratz doll was created to be a good alternative to the Barbie; instead, she teaches sexuality through inappropriate attire and excessive makeup. The Bratz doll needs a make-over if she is going to teach girls to grow up confident.

"Resembool. My mom lives there and I'm checking on her because she hasn't responded to my letters for awhile."

Willa Cather has a strong admiration for the character Antonia in "My Antonia." The introduction of "My Antonia" states that the narrator and Jim were to write down all they knew of her in order to maybe "get a picture of her." I believe this strong admiration is because of the characteristics that are shown by Antonia throughout the story.
