Hey there!

That's an amazing question.

Below's my answer:

Let's compare and contrast these books (focusing on education and communication).

<u>The Story of My  Life</u>

  • Written by Hellen Keller
  • Author discusses her many constraints in growing up
  • Education was available, but, until she learned Braille, life was hard
  • She found it hard to communicate
  • 1st person autobiography
  • Describes how her life was changed with Anne Sullivan
  • Has extraordinary language (high-leveled)

<u>Maniac Magee</u>

  • Written by Jerry Spinelli
  • Talks about an White orphan who runs away to a small town in Pennsylvania, Two Mills
  • Education was there, Grayson offered, Maniac refused (he was the only White)
  • Is shy
  • Describes how Maniac's life was changed when he went to Two Mills (Mars Bar, Amanda Beale, et cetera)
  • Uses slang to convey tone, mood, and theme

Looking at the above points, we can presume that both <u>Maniac Magee</u> and <u>The Story of My Life</u> discuss the struggles that occur when growing up (education and communication) when you are seen differently.

Narrative Essay on Hurricane Sandy
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Hurricane Sandy was definitely a very difficult time for everyone in the northeast region. Initially I did not realize how hard it was going to hit us, because the previous year Hurricane Irene did not have such a strong effect on my town. Of course we did not leave the house, and there were a few fallen trees, however it did not affect us like Hurricane Sandy did.

Even though I wasn’t expecting a very severe hurricane, my parents still prepared for the worst. They requested me to come home and stay even though many of my friends were still on campus. I figured being with my family during this difficult time would make the most sense. When the hurricane hit initially we did not lose any electricity even though many families around us did. My sister and I decided to end our boredom by watching random television shows, and just as we found something that interested us, the power went out. We were hoping it was just a quick power shortage, and that the power would be back within the hour. We were in for a big surprise. We did not have warm water or power for five days.

For those five days we charged our laptops and phones inside of my mom’s car, and used them until they had to be charged again and again. During that time, we went on a hunt for all of our old DVDs in our basement, and brought them all up one by one to watch on the laptop. We would listen to the radio from time to time to find out if there were any updates regarding the power outage. The entire time I couldn’t wait for everything to get back to normal so I could return to school and start enjoying my life again.

It was one afternoon when my mom and I were in the car listening to the radio, when I realized that we didn’t have it nearly as bad as people in other ...
