From Being a Book Worm To Becoming a Children's Book Author By: Esther I. Kim When I was a kid, I was a huge book worm. One of my favorite hobbies was to go to the local library and immediately, I would dive into the children’s book section. I’ve read hundreds of books including: The Rainbow Fish, The Hungry Caterpillar, Where the WIld Things Are, and so much more. Reading helped me escape into the unknown, while developing my critical reading and writing skills. It also helped me to become a more confident speaker since my family was bi-lingual.
Esther KimPublished 3 years ago in EducationLove Will Prevail: Romeo and Juliet
Romeo and Juliet, written by the one and only William Shakespeare, is widely considered one of the greatest love stories of all time. The play centers around Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet, children of two different families, who meet each other at a party and fall in love, despite the fact that the families that they come from have been in a bitter rivalry for many decades. They soon figure out that they come from these different families, but even despite this, they go against what their families have always believed and profess their love for each other. The theme that William Shakespeare is trying to get across is that love conquers all; even in the worst circumstances possible for two people to fall in love, they fall in love anyway, and are willing to do anything for each other in order to stay together. Romeo and Juliet couldn’t care less that they come from different families; they still want to be together and promise to love each other until the very end. This theme of “love conquers all” is prevalent throughout the entire play, showing the lengths that two people are willing to go through to stay together, how even two incredibly different people that should be bitter rivals can love each other for eternity, and how said love could even end a long-time rivalry between two families when the families realize that they cared not about the fact that they came from two different families, but about being together until the very end.

Some people say you can only understand the present by knowing about the past. After all, it’s how we got from A-Z.

“Justice is tolerated not as a good, but as the lesser evil, and honoured by reason of the inability of men to do injustice. For no man who is worthy to be called a man would ever submit to such an agreement if he were able to resist; he would be mad if he did. Such is the received account, Socrates, of the nature and origin of justice.” (The Republic, Book II)

I have recently come across an article in Russia about the long-suffering book ‘Lolita’ (1955) by the Russian-American novelist, poet, and translator, Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977). The long-suffering epithet assigned to the book is not mine though. It is Vladimir Nabokov himself who said so, as he was witnessing criticism of his book. The book was published in 1955 by Paris based Olympia Press, specialising in erotic and avant-gard literature. The fact that did very little good to the book, apart, of course, from making it popular.

Debabrata MohantaPublished 3 years ago in EducationAdela Strangeworth | The Possibility Of Evil Short Story
A concept that deserves more context is how “looks are deceiving” or how you should “never judge a book by its cover.” It is not rare to encounter individuals with two-faced personalities who make themselves seem different then what they truly are from the inside. Shirley Jackson, the author of the short story ‘The Possibility of Evil,’ brings a more detailed perspective emphasizing how there is a possibility of evil in everyone – even if they look or seem innocent and charming. Shirley Jackson accentuates this through the main character of the story, Miss Adela Strangeworth. Some character traits Miss Strangeworth had that placed prominence on her duplicitous personality were self-consciousness, carefulness, and her sanctimony. Miss Strangeworth was always very self-conscious about herself and the letters she wrote to others. “She was fond of doing things exactly right. When she made a mistake, as sometimes she did, she took the page to the kitchen stove and burned it at once.” (Jackson 225-226) With this reference is it easy to realize that Miss Strangeworth loathed her failures and was wrapped in self-denial. Hence when she made a mistake, she would get rid of the evidence as immediately as she could. Since she had to mail the letters to different citizens, she needed for them to not include any sort of faults. Along with being self-conscious about her existence, Miss Strangeworth was also very careful. “she had always made a point of mailing her letters very secretly. Consequently, she timed her walk so she could reach the post office just as darkness was starting to dim the outlines of the trees and the shapes of peoples’ faces.” (227) Since Miss Strangeworth had always made sure that she mailed her letters very secretly, she would time her walk so she could reach the post office just when darkness started to arise, and people started to vanish inside their homes. This really accurately illustrates how Miss Strangeworth was very careful. As obviously clarified, Miss Strangeworth tried to avoid being recognized by arriving at the post office when it was nighttime. Since the word ‘secretly’ was being used, it is clear to the reader that Miss Strangeworth was very careful with keeping her faulty letters a secret.
