White, Fluffy Creatures
Bunnies are fluffy, bushy tailed creatures that are small. Bunnies are usually just in the world, on their own, but sometimes people keep them as pets. Bunnies are pets, but they need a lot of care and love to keep them. Bunnies can be nice or mean, they can also be different colors as well. They usually are white or light brown, they can be both white and light brown. Bunnies are better in their own because they are able to eat the grass and other food that is around them.

The Kane Heroes
Author’s Note: I wrote about The Red Pyramid because I had already read a book called The Lost Hero they were similar, but a little different. In this assessment I worked on using better vocabulary and I also tried to compare The Red Pyramid to The Lost Hero.
Could it be possible to cast spells? Possibly to host a God within your body? Possibly to destroy the God or Goddess? In The Red Pyramid by: Rick Riordan all of that is possible to do. Carter Kane and his sister Sadie Kane embark on an adventure to destroy “The Red Lord” also known as Set and his Red pyramid to save the world. They have a God's soul inside of them, able to use their power. They were called hosts when parts of the God’s soul were in them allowing them to have great power. Is anything truly possible in this book or is it just made up?
Both The Red Pyramid and The Lost Hero have their differences I am going to talk about how they are similar to each other. Although The Lost Hero is about the Greek Gods of Olympus and The Red Pyramid is about the Egyptians Gods they are similar. In The Lost Hero they have Tartarus which is controlled by Hades and The Red Pyramid has the Duat and the Hall of judgment which is similar. They both embark on journeys that are similar to save the world. The difference is that The Red Pyramid is to destroy a God, and The Lost Hero they save a Goddess. Also in both stories they discover similar events that are about to happen. In The Lost Hero Giants are going to rise and destroy Mount Olympus and the Gods. The Red Pyramid however the serpent called Apophis has escaped the Duat and is going to destroy the world and take over all creation.
Although The Red Pyramid and The Lost Hero don’t forget about the differences. The Gods in The Lost Hero are just the main Gods like Zeus God of the Sky or Poseidon God of the Sea. Instead in The Red Pyramid they have Gods or Goddesses for basically everything. Also in both books they have powers that are different, The Lost Hero they are demigods with some of their Godly parents powers. In both books they have to face different problems and different items they need to finish their quest. The Lost Hero they need to need to retrieve the Golden Fleece and The Red Pyramid has to retrieve a feather of truth and the secret name of Set.
The book does include some things that people do in the World. They worship the Gods and goddesses of Egypt, although we worship whatever God is in our religion. In our planet we like to watch basketball and play it as well, in The Red Pyramid baboons love to play basketball. The Red Pyramid is a lot like the world and what we do every day. People in the world sometimes believe in legends or myths; there are a lot of myths and legends in the world. Some people believe in things like Bigfoot or possibly events they think can happen.
Again I say is it anything possible in this book or is it just made up? If any of this possible is it performed around the world? Has this been possible or any of this possible back when the Egyptians ruled Egypt? I would be scared if all of this would happen now. Although the whole thing in this book seems like it could truly happen they will not happen in the future or present.

Human are Not the Same
Author's Note: In this story I will talk about how having robots can be good, yet they can be bad at the same time. I worked on not summarizing the story and comparing other books, movies, or real world situations in this story.
Is it possible for humans to live on different planets? In this short story called Humans are Different was written by Alan Bloch. The human is sick and the robot thinks he can repair him, but he has to shut him down first. The robot was wrong, he couldn’t fix the human and instead the robot killed him. Robots and human are similar, but they never will be the same.
To begin with the book is similar to movies like the terminator, transformers, and wall-e. In the terminator the robots take over the world just like in humans are different the robots are the only thing left and there are barely any humans. Although in transformers the robots are trying to take over the world. It’s similar although they are trying to save people and destroy them at the same time.
Having robots can be a good thing; they can help us in surgery. Robots can create things that we need or what we use every day like cars and they create other things. They help us in dangerous surgeries to measure their brain activity and their heartbeat. They can help us with everyday tasks like the Roomba which is an automatic vacuum that can help you with cleaning. The Roomba is a vacuum cleaner that needs no plug, no one to push it, and the best part is it won’t hit a wall.
On the other hand having robots can be bad at the same time. They don’t have brains so they can’t think, they always need to be in control or something bad could happen. Robots can work and they can’t think; robots can malfunction badly. If we don't test them before present them to the public eye.
Again I say robots are different, we can be healed but we can't be repaired like robots. Robots cannot ever be like humans, but they can do tasks or help us with everyday tasks. Some robots can act like humans, but they can never be exactly like us. Though robots and humans act the same sometimes, they will never be the same

No Chance of Escape
Author's Note: Water flowing into an excavation site with heavy rubber suits are being worn, they can't swim in the water it was almost truly no escape.
Imagine being at an excavating a site ten stories beneath a sewer wearing rubber suits hardly able to move. While Lynn Rosellini was writing she wrote a short story that involves that situation called No Escape. Swaby, Kenneth Schofield and John Kanash were all together in an excavation site. Till all of a sudden water flooding the site and there is nothing you can do about it. Even though the only way out is by a man cage the crane driver grabbed the man cage and saved one of the men. Even though the rule was don’t go back he made a smart choice.
In addition, the radios are broke and they can’t communicate to each other for him to lower that man cage. While they lower the cage water keeps pouring in and it is almost going to drowning them. A man goes back to save his fellow workers, even though the safety rules say you don’t go back if there is a danger. If he would have wasted anymore time his friends wouldn’t have made it out and the place would’ve been flooded.
To begin with the rubber suits were a setback to them with the heavy rubber boots and rain suits. Seeing that they almost drowned they need to invent rain suits and boots that weigh less for them if they did that they would be able to have a chance to get out. If they did that they would be a little bit safer and probably a little bit more comfortable in those suits. The suits were so heavy they were stuck down there.
Likewise he made a good decision to go back and save his friends, their families were no doubt thankful that he went back to save them. When Swaby saved them they were chin level with the water; about to drown. Swaby was very intelligent for going back to save his friends, if he would stay hesitated more than 15 seconds they would have drowned.
All in all Swaby made the right choice to go back and save his friends. Swaby was a hero for going back; his co-workers were thinking they were going to drown before Swaby came back down in the man cage. Swaby saved their lives because he knew he could save them, even though there is a rule they should have it set under circumstances instead.

bullying on Venus
Author's Note: I wrote about this short story because this is a good story that he wrote and it was my best choice to write about.
Imagine being on a world where you rarely see the sun; you claim to remember what the sun looks like. The sun comes out every eight years and she remembers what it looks like; “I think the sun is a flower that only blooms for one hour; a penny; like a fire in a stove. I know the author thought, what if a human moved from Earth to Venus and the sun rarely came out and it always rained? Because he knew it that type of an idea had never been done before.
If someone was saying that they knew what the sun looked like or when it was going to come out of the clouds, no one should believe they are either lying or just guessing and not listen to them or at least take it into consideration. She is locked in a closet because of her memories she is locked into a closet while the sun comes out for the first time in eight years. If that did happen to someone everyone else would regret it later.
The sun only comes out every eight years and for one hour only; a short time for viewing the sun. If it was like that on earth we would need a lot more sun or we would need to take vitamin D instead. If it did rain for eight years straight Venus would be flooded because if it did not stop raining for eight years life would be on Venus. If they didn’t get sun in every eight years it would be a nightmare because it would keep raining nonstop and you would never be able to see the sun and have a break to the nonstop raining.
If there was life on a different planet just like this it would be unlikely because you couldn’t plant crops or raise cows. If the sun appeared rarely you would never be able to plant crops for food; you couldn’t eat. Even if you did have cows you would need grass, which it is raining for eight years straight. If that even was possible it would be hard to live, almost impossible to live like that.
I know the author did write a good short story, but it would be better if they included more details. He could have included how they lived, what they ate, how did they get food and what they did. I know the author can improve his story.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
Author's note: I wanted to write about this, because it is inspiring to read.
All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.
By: Martin Luther King Jr.
This quote from American history is legend, it should be remembered and should be used in daily life. This quote was used and changed America forever. This quote is something that has to be remembered, so that we never will think that working hard is useless.
