Dirtylocks and the Three Pigs - Original Writing Once, in a place, in a time, that is to say, once upon a time, there lived a not so beautiful young woman named Dirtylocks. She was called this because she had long locks of hair that looked almost like dirt because of their dark brown colour and she was fond of playing in any mud or dirt she could find, around where she lived in the woods. Her friends would often complain to Dirtylocks for ruining her party dresses, which she wore before a night out in the forest with her friends. One summer morning, after a wild night out in the forest Dirtylocks ran straight outside her cottage to play, whilst her friends were still inside sleeping recovering from their hangovers. Dirtylocks was known to be more than a little mischievous; this had also gotten her in a lot of trouble before. She instantly began searching around where she was allowed to play for a nice big pile of mud that she could squish between her hands (it was mud and dirt that revealed Dirtylocks’ inner child to everybody). “All of the best places have dried up, and dry mud is no fun.” Dirtylocks thought to herself. So she stomped her feet in a temper and sat down on the grass, arms folded with an awful frown on her face. Just at that moment, Dirtylocks could just make out in the distance, where the trees started to get taller, a trail of mud, wet mud; exactly what she liked to see. She started smiling with a naughty look on her face. Dirtylocks knew that there were many strange creatures in that part of the forest, where the trees got taller. Even so, a cheeky smile began to creep onto her face. “I don’t care, I haven’t played in a sloppy pile of mud for ages! I’ll be fine, I’m a big girl now.” She thought. So off Dirtylocks went over to the trail of mud and she began to

What kind of traits do you find most admirable? In “The Story of the Three Little Pigs”, there are three little pigs and a wolf. The three pigs each build their own house out of materials that they gather. The first pig's house is made of straw, the second furze, and the last, bricks. Then a wolf comes knocking at each of the three pigs doors, successfully breaking the first two pigs' houses down and gobbling up the pigs inside. As the wolf comes to the third pig's house, he is unable to break it down, as the house is made of bricks the pig, then outsmarts the wolf and it is the wolf who ends up being eaten by the Third Little Pig. In this story, Third Little Pig is the most admirable of the Three Little Pigs.
Alastair Norcross in his article “Puppies, Pigs, and People: Eating Meat and Marginal cases “expresses the moral dilemma based on factory farming. Norcross gives an example of a man named Fred. Fred has to torture puppies in order to be able to enjoy chocolate. This is because when puppies are brutally tortured and then brutally killed they release a chemical called cocoamone. This chemical enhances the taste of chocolate, so Fred is killing puppies for gustatory pleasure. Any morally sound person would be appalled at what Frank is doing to these puppies and that is the basis of Norcross’s article. He is arguing that raising animals on factory farms and what Fred is doing are both morally wrong, because in both cases we are brutally killing the

With America today people constantly struggle with identity. Especially minorities who are persistently pushing themselves to be a part of the American dream. Everyone wants a piece of the pie; however still many minorities are not treated equally, or respected. Kingsolver in her novel, Pigs In Heaven establishes Annawake as a Cherokee representative. She seemingly portrays her as the predator in the chapters. It is apparent through the novel that Annawake makes all her decisions out of her love for the Cherokee tribe and her brother Gabe, while Taylor commits to her choices through Turtle. Annawake does not appreciate the bond of mother and child;therefore disregarding Taylor's feelings of keeping Turtle.
