Every special thing

   "All summer in a day" by Ray Bradbury, this story is about kids that leave in another planet and that planet once every 7 years the sun comes out. This girl named Margot lived in Ohio in the planet earth, she loved the sun but then she needed to go to Venus because there father paid a lot of money to bring her there. The kids bully her because they have never see the sun and she has. In other words she was bully for something they have never saw. Margot had a lot of faith that the sun was coming out that day, she was waiting for this moment for 3 years and she was very excited. All the kids thought that all of this was a joke so they ignored her. This kid named William was the one that until her the most because he was very confident that the sun will never come out. They waited a lot of ours and many lost their faith. Margot never lost faith in the sun so she was steal very excited. William was very jealous at her so he told everyone to lock her in the closet. When there were locking her something happened, the rain stop. The sun was coming out. They played all the one Hour that they have. This was until the sun was cover and it started raining again. Everyone was happy when they realize that Margot was still lock up in the closet. Everyone was devastated but she was the most, she loosed everything that she wanted.


    
It was the color of flaming bronze and it
was very large. And the sky around it was a
blazing blue tile color. And the jungle burned
with sunlight as the children, released from
their spell, rushed out, yelling into the
springtime.


Ray Bradbury has showed as the sky, a blue and shiny sky. The children didn’t think that this was going too happened, so they ran as fast as they could and play like if it was spring time. The trees were shining and everything was colorful and amazing. Everything was like a sunny day and a place where you could do anything you want.

She was a very frail girl who
looked as if she had been lost in the rain for
years and the rain had washed out the blue
from her eyes and the red from her mouth
and the yellow from her hair.

Ray Bradbury is showing how this emotional and nice girl is ended because of the sun. She loose her color and old of her. This is a child who loved everything but stay with nothing.

I like this story a lot because it show us how we need to appreciate everything we have. And how different can be a people, do not think badly about her. Everyone is here for a thing. In this story is Margot but she was the one that lost everything and didn’t do something wrong. We dont need to gudge something that we dont know.

not all is perfect

              
The giver

We have read the giver and we know that on this times Jonas has receive memories of pain and of pleasure. When the giver transmitted warfare to Jonas, he wasn’t the same. When he was with Asher and Fiona playing warfare, he only feels like in a real war. Fiona and Asher realize that when Jonas first started   to train he wasn’t the kid that liked to play every time and learn new things. Jonas one morning just asked the giver, “Do you ever think about release” (pg. 139). I think that for the receiver make him think about bad things and death.  The Giver and Jonas were talking and bring the topic about the failure 10 years ago. The giver was telling Jonas that when he was selected he handed the same reaction as rosemary, as we can see in this passage: “on the surface, it was quite simple. A receiver to be was selected, the way you were. The selection went smoothly enough. The ceremony was held, and the selection was made. The crowd cheered, as they did for you. The new receiver was puzzled and a little frightened, as you were” (pg140 Lowry). The giver was continuing explaining about the receiver and brought the name Rosemary. She liked the memories but when she feels the memories of pain she changed. The giver told him that when he becomes the new receiver he could read all books if he wanted and he can watch releases. The giver show Jonas the release of a twin, and founded out that his father killed him and send it to elsewhere.  
    
  
The giver told Jonas that rosemary applied for a release they show him the process. Now Jonas  knows what release means.  Jonas is to young to sufer a lot of pain but their are not only painfull memories. They are many happy memories that if Jonas could transmit he will do it. That is why the giver and Jonas whant to have an escape plan. The Giver is only planing that Jonas goes because he want to be finished, as we can see in this passage ¨i love you, Jonas¨ he said ¨but i have another place to go. When my work here is finished, i want to be with my daughter.
