In one, a specimen-creating brute robs a pelican child’s life and her guardian trying to bring her back to life. In the other, a prince learns the value of his frog-turned-princess and sets out on a quest to find her. Joy Williams’s Baba Iaga and the Pelican Child and Alexander Afanasev’s The Frog Princess are both critical facets of the fairy tale genre. While initially it may seem that Williams preserved no elements from Afanasev’s tale, upon a closer glance, it is evident that the two tales’ similarities outnumber their differences. By incorporating a generous portion of the original story into his, Williams’s version brings forth an innovative arrangement of classic and new. As a result, William’s tale introduces features to the tale that mirror everyday life lessons while simultaneously maintaining qualities that are reflective of the definitional aspects of the fairy tale genre.

Weasel always plays tricks on Angel, and Angel hates it. One day while Angel was taking a shower Weasel came out of nowhere and took a picture of Angel in the shower, at least Angel covered his body with the shower curtains. Weasel threated Angel to give him 20 dollars or else he’ll show the picture to every girl in Angel’s school Angel was really worried. Angel tried to get the photo away from him but there was no chance, but finally he came up with an idea.

After Angel’s dad came home Angel ran to him and said everything, but instead Weasel being mad at him he gave Angel his picture back and they got along. Alma loved to go to trick-or-treating she had the best costumes ever; she loved the smell of candy on a Halloween nights. Alma...
Speak, by Laurie Halse Anderson, is a story written in the first person about a young girl named Melinda Sordino.

In the novel, Hook uses poison to attempt to kill Peter but in the movie Hook leaves a bomb wrapped as a present for Peter which said it was from Wendy. This can show how modernized the world has become since Barrie wrote his novel and by using a bomb it showed how times were changing and it would be more appealing to viewers. Hook was also an interesting character in Peter Pan. Hook and his crew were adults and would come to Neverland. It is never explained why the novel or the movie, but Hook portrayed differently in the movie. In Disney’s movie “Peter Pan” After Hook is defeated, he begins to beg Peter Pan to keep alive and that he will leave forever and not come back. “I’ll go away forever, I’ll do anything you say.” Then Peter then says to

The Princess and the Frog is a classical fairytale of a prince who is turned into a frog by an evil witch and must find a good princess to break the spell. The film has captured the attention of many people since it stars Disney’s first African American Princess. The story takes place in New Orleans during the late 1800s with young Tiana and her friend Charlotte la Bouff dreaming of fairly tale endings. The film has some questionable representations of race, gender and class that feminist and scholars are dissecting. Both Lester and Turner examine Disney’s representation of racial characters and the construction of a dominate narrative in this film. Representation matters, especially in movies that construct an imaginary world for the young
Some movies are based on a certain time period, but do they always represent it accurately? The movie The Princess Bride was formed around the Middle Ages. This movie is similar, yet different from the time it is attempting to portray. A quick summary of this story is a farm boy and lady fall in love with each other, they get separated, and they endure many obstacles to become one again. This film is packed with romance, adventure, and faithfulness. However, the actual Middle Ages rarely had romance, and was full of fear, death, and sadness. The movie can be compared and contrasted with the actual Middle Ages using the concept of love, loyalty, and the appearance of the people.
In both Hans Christian Andersons “The Little Mermaid,” and Disney’s version of the story, the main character— a young and beautiful mermaid— waits anxiously for her fifteenth birthday to venture from her father’s underwater castle to the world above the water. As the story carries on the mermaids priorities change; her modest and selfless nature is revealed towards the end in Andersen’s version. However, Disney’s version encompasses a rather shallow ending and plot throughout. The theme found in comparing the two versions reveal that Andersen’s substance trumps Disney’s entertainment factor in fairy tales.

As Princess Aurora said, “They say if you dream a thing more than once, it is sure to come true”. Unfortunately, I grew up and did not become a Disney princess, however, they still played a big role in my childhood as they do with most young girls. There are many controversies about the effects Disney princesses have on young girls, so should they be exposed to one of Disney’s most iconic images when they are so vulnerable?

The whole family cried for hours upon hours. Eventually they stopped because they didn’t have any tears left. To make Meredith try to forget what had happened, they took her out to her favorite restaurant, “ Wild West Steak House”. It didn't work, all they could talk about was Meredith’s cancer and how they were going to pay for it. When Meredith got home she took a long hot shower and then tried to go to sleep, but everything that was going on in her life was replaying in her mind and she couldn't get them to be quiet. Around 2:00 in the morning she fell asleep but only for moments.
