A hero can be anyone, short or tall, big or small, and not necessarily empowered with super abilities. Heroes can be someone to look up to for their acts, and personalities, in the case of Jonathan Safran Foer’s novel Extremely Loud and Incredible Close Oskar Schell is the unlikely hero. He exemplifies traits associated with the common hero like courage, as he enters into scenarios that under normal circumstances he would never dare confront. While also being slightly untraditional in the sense that he is only nine years old and suffering from depression as result of the loss of his father, and other ailments. Throughout Oskar’s journey he becomes molded into a stronger person as he comes to closure near the end of the novel thanks to those he encounters along his path.
You can tell he is very cocky and boastful about his basketball playing ability. Also, when Coach Collins goes to visit him to try to get him on the team, he tells Brian that he was out of line for fighting with his players and that he must change his attitude if he wants to join the team. At the first game of the season, coach and the other players see Brian’s selfishness on the court first hand. Brian gets a technical foul and is very disrespectful to the referees, his coach and his teammates. Coach Collins finally meets Brian’s father, and from their conversation after the game, you can see that Brian’s selfish attitude stems from his father, “feeding the monster,” so to speak. After multiple games, it is clear that Brian is losing the team games and his teammates are very frustrated that they are coming together the best they can and all he is thinking about is himself. At practice, coach lets Brian go against the whole team to see what it is like to have no teammates helping him and that helps Brian realize what it’s like to not have any teammates helping him but still doesn’t like the fact that he needs them to win games. After his coach and teammates talk some sense into him, they become one cohesive unit that is motivated to win
Brian’s trip is very unexpectedly interrupted, when the plane’s pilot has a heart attack. Brian tries to continue the flight, with help from men over the radio. Unfortunately, the radio dies, and the plane runs out of gas. I think this part of the story, is very unrealistic. If the plane were supposed to make it all the way to the destination, why would it suddenly run out of gas? Also, why would the radios suddenly become broken? I realize this was the whole point of the novel but it doesn’t seem realistic. Brian then spends exactly Fifty-four days by an L-shaped lake. He faces many conflicts. He is put in a situation like the “Survivor” television show. He needs to find a way to survive, unlike on the show, by himself. He needed protection from the weather, so he built shelter. He was hungry, so he hunted for food. He discovered how to catch fish, rabbit, and discovered bushes of nuts. He also had a bad encounter with “Poison berries,” as he called them, which made his stomach sick. Brian also had encounters with wild animals, such as, a porcupine, and a moose. Brian needed warmth, so he made fire, without any matches.
The play “A Raisin in the Sun” by Lorraine Hansberry has many interesting characters. In my opinion, the most fascinating character is Ruth because of her many emotions and captivating personality. She goes through extreme emotions in the play such as happiness, sadness, anger, stress, and confusion. Ruth is very independent, firm, kind, witty, and loving.
Rock-A-Doodle was always a childhood favorite movie of mine. I enjoyed the animation and the catchy songs; I could connect with the characters and I cared about what was happening in the story. This 1992 kids’ movie written and directed by former Disney animator Don Bluth stars Chanticleer, a singing rooster who leaves the farm to look for work in the “big city” after the sun rises one morning although he didn’t crow; and Edmund, a boy turned into a kitten, desperate to bring Chanticleer back home and “save the farm”. Of course all of their barnyard friends are along for the ride. As a child, the story made perfect sense and I found myself rooting for the main characters. Now I am an adult and my son watches the exact same old
The novel, Shelter by Harlan Coben is a book regarding a boy discovering a mystery that was hidden from him. The protagonist of this book is a teenager named Mickey Bolitare. Mickey witnesses his father’s death so he is now living with his uncle Myron. His life falls apart, but then he encounters Ashley. Ashley is a new student in school like him, and he soon forms feelings for her. Ashley was the reason why his life was bearable; until she disappears without a trace. He would not take the chance of letting anyone else leave him because he's lost too much already. On his search for Ashley he meets the Bat Lady ( a old elder woman who everyone fears) who tells him his father is in fact still alive. Mickey refused to believe this because he witnessed his father die in a car crash they had. This information influenced him to break into her house and he discovers a symbol that remains symbolic throughout the novel. The symbol was a butterfly which connects to his missing friend Ashley and his
Just like Lili, even though Little Guy has a lot of character to him, he remains static. Little Guy is the seven year old son of Guy and Lili. He is a very intelligent boy. This is made evident to the reader earlier in the story during the conversation among the family when Guy says, “I see some very hard words here, son,” and Lili replies with, “ he already knows his speech.” Not only does this show his ability to quickly memorize lines but his determination to do best. Later he is rewarded with this with more lines in play which he then quickly memorizes as well which he proudly recites for his father. Little Guy seeks to make his parents proud, and does so with his lead role in his play. Later is the story, Guy takes his own life and almost in an attempt to make his father proud one last time, Little Guy recites his lines one last time for his father, showing Little Guys love and admiration for Guy that he has maintained throughout the

...why he never found them. He will not allow himself to because by this point he had given up on school and eventually he gave up on the whole world. Tragically though, he gives it all up before he truly has a chance to get it started.

As he grows older, his style changes and he sees the real world as it really is as opposed to his fantasies he had when he was younger.
