CNN and Fox news are the world’s most valuable source of information for presidential debates, political events, and things going on in the world that one should know.

In 2009, director Wes Anderson released the stop-motion, animated film called “Fantastic Mr. Fox” based off of a novel published in 1970 by Roald Dahl. The story’s main character is named Mr. Fox, who, to his family and the people of his community, has always been referred to as being fantastic; he’s smart, clever, crafty, and quick on his feet.

Mr. Fox is one of the most enchanting and interesting books that I have read recently, and Helen Oyeyemi is also a highly inventive storyteller. She combines the reality, the fiction and fairy tales together, creating different characters and plots. Some characters are serious or ironic. Other characters can fall in love immediately with others or kill their lovers. I can feel the warm atmosphere when the characters are docile and romantic, and I also can feel the pains when characters stuck in the

Her books are exciting, and make you want to keep reading. I have read a couple of books by Norma, including Good Night, Maman. It is historical fiction
