If you like dogs, cats, or bears and reading, you’ve probably heard of Erin Hunter. Maybe you haven’t heard of her, but she wrote the popular Warriors series, Seekers, Survivors, and Bravelands. Something important to know about Erin Hunter is that she does not exist. She is a pseudonym, or a fictitious name that is used by authors. It is also known as a pen name. Erin Hunter is a group of six writers, Victoria Holmes, Cherith Baldry, Kate Cary, Tui Sutherland, Gillian Philip, Inbali Iserles, and

“The Black Cat” by Edgar Allan Poe is narrated by a man dealing with an ill temper and alcoholism. The narrator who was once “noted for his docility and humanity” and cared for his pets transforms into a monster who kills his favorite cat, Pluto, his wife and another black cat that resembles Pluto. He tries to compromise his “fiendish” actions and hides his wife’s corpse, but at the end, his wife’s body is found in the walls while the black cat that resembled Pluto was sitting on top of the corpse
It is amazing how a small thing like a pre-teen book series about cats has impacted my life. Creative endeavors have always fascinated me. Cartoons, posters, photos, books, you name it. I was intrigued by the Japanese cartoons I saw on TV, with bright colors and fluid animations that pulled me in just as much as the storylines. As I searched for more animations and character art, I grew increasingly captivated and decided to create my own art, characters, and stories. I looked at illustrations that
Poe’s “The Black Cat” is traditionally considered as a horror tale, however, in this essay, I will prove that it is not a horror tale, but an optimism tale. First, “The Black Cat” is about an individual’s confession. Actually, there are four types of confession: religious confession, legal cofession, confession of faith and literary confession. “The Black Cat” is a literary confession, which means that the narrator in the tale speaks or confesses to all human, and he wants to restore a moral order
Feline Companionship in Cat in the Rain I chose to write about Hemingway's "Cat in the Rain" in part because it is one of the few of his stories I have read which has an "ending." There is a specific event at the end of the story which wraps up the story's events and gives the reader a sense of finality not found in most of Hemingway's short works. Written in his characteristic sparse style, "Cat in the Rain" is seemingly simple in plot and character, but a careful reading reveals deeper meaning
sadness. Warriors Fading Echoes, a juvenile fiction novel by Erin Hunter, is thrilling, tragic, and gives the reader a feeling of adventure; this story is eye-catching and has nothing that should be change. Erin Hunter, the author of the Warriors series, in reality, doesn’t exist. Erin Hunter is a pen name for six people Kate Cary, Cerith Baldry, Gillian Philip, Inbali Iserles, Victoria Holmes, and Tui T. Sutherland ("Erin Hunter Biography."). Next, Holmes was born on July 7, 1974, Cary was born
the book is going to take. The BBC television series of the same name is based on this book but the events of the book and series are quite different and in my opinion the book is superior. The central character of this book is Dave Lister and it focuses on his journey through space which brings him farther and farther from the planet of his birth. The other characters in the book are Arnold Rimmer (the hologram of a third grade technician who was killed by a nuclear explosion, which had the

At the end of the narrative, the four sons decapitate their sister just as they had observed what had been done to the chicken.

remember to have heard that name, maybe it could be the type of wild cat that we call 'gato montés' or 'Geoffroy cat', it's quite common that the same type species is called by different names in different places. The Gato montés is a cat slightly larger than a domestic one, its fur is also similar to leopard fur, it is very beautiful, but it's extremely ferocious. Undoubtedly, the program about cats must have been a good show, cats are wonderful and very loving, I love them! I have three now, but I
time when a person discovers who they are. They discover what is important to them, the type of person they want to be, the type of people they want in their life, and what direction they want their life to go. Combine the mundane troubles of adolescence with the intrepid journey of heroism, all at the ripe age of thirteen, and a very hectic journey of self discovery begins. Marinette Dupain-Cheng, from the animated series Miraculous: The Adventures of Ladybug and Cat Noir, is burdened with the onerous
extent “The Black Cat” by Edgar Allan Poe does, which emphasizes a vituperative character. Whether it be his or her mental state or condition, the reader has no dependence on the narrator’s point of view. This is deemed as reading from the perspective of an unreliable narrator. There are various types of unreliable narrators, each of them having distinct characteristics limiting them from supplying the reader with adequate or completely true information. In the short story, “The Black Cat,” Poe delineates
Belgium is the place of origin for a number of iconic cartoon heroes – Tintin and Asterix to name just two, but then there are the Smurfs – the village-full of tiny blue-skinned mischievous imps who attract the attention of kids and grown ups alike for several decades. There is barely a country on Earth where the Smurf silhouette is not instantly recognised, although their name changes in every counry: the Smurfs, die Schlumpfe, I Puffi, Los Pitufos, de Smurfen, les Schtroumpfs… The Smurfs were
Review of Serendipity Mystery: Diary of a Snoopy Cat by R.F. Kristi Have you ever thought about becoming a detective? Do you have what it takes to solve mysteries like Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christi, Kojak, Columbo, or even Inspector Gadget?

people are familiar with the general claim dogs hate cats. We are reminded of this in advertisements, cartoons, and children’s jokes. We are familiar with the phrase “fighting like cats and dogs”. We may even classify ourselves as either a dog person or a cat person. But there are many people who have equal fondness for both dogs and cats. It is within these homes that the general claim dogs hate cats proves false. Not all dogs hate cats. The Martin Agency’s Geico auto insurance commercial

According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, a ripple effect is defined as “ a situation in which one event causes a series of events to happen”. In the story “ Top of the Food Chain” by T.C Boyle, it is evident that a ripple effect is present. This is present in many factors of the entire story. Clearly, Boyle’s message he is trying to get across to the reader is everything has a ripple effect therefore you have to make wise thought out decisions rather than irrational ones. In the beginning of
Albrecht Dürer was a German Renaissance artist known for his prints, and books on proportion. For over a hundred years, Knight, Death and Devil,(cat. 1) Saint Jerome in His Study,(cat. 2) and Melencolia I, (cat. 3) have been considered Dürer’s Meisterstiche, or “master prints.”1 There are several different interpretations of these 3 engravings, the imagery with in them, and their relation to each other. These Master Prints are probably the most written about of Dürer’s work. In the year 2014, we
