historical connectionsI think the reason some people choose to go against the popular thing just simply because everybody isn't the same so people are followers and some people are leaders. Followers are most likely going to follow behind the strongest person or the person who has the most power because they don't want to be left out and want to feel a part of something. Here's a perfectly good example, there is always that one pretty girl and everyone likes her and everyone want to be her friend so many people are going to try to be her friend and become a group/clique with her just so they can say they are friends with her and that they are as popular as her. Leaders are different they may want to be leaders from different reasons but when they are put up to something they lead with it and continue to do what they want to do

so what?-blog postso what? i'll tell you what's, what! I personally don't think that my book matters, my book is about a girl whose brother wants to go to the army, his father doesn't approve of it at first but hank tell him what he wants and then his father acts like he's very well okay with this. Hank tells his father he wants to do this because President Franklin Delano Roosevelt promises the men that join that they aren't going to get into any foreign wars but, that was a lie 2 months after he joins the army Pearl Harbor is attacked and also many of the american ships, now that sounds like a foreign attack to me. So Piper (his sister) just hears about this on the radio and it's telling everyone about what the Japanese did to Pearl Harbor and all the ships they've attacked all except... Hank's. From pg. # 34-35 "i read the paper over his shoulder, the Oklahoma was sunk. that was definite. I read the whole front page .Twice. there was not one lick of news about any other ships not about the Arizona. Everyone is devastated but...... that's not the point i'm trying to make here. Hank did survive and everyone lived a happily ever after. but that's why i think it shouldn't matter to read my book it's about a girl and here family suffering through the time that they thought a family member had died and he didn't he came home safe and sound. My book is basically a big fairytale that should be a disgraced to any historical fiction book. I'm will give it to the author that it was a very good story time book and a good book to learn about peoples life experiences but it was not a book that i would put in the historical fiction part of my library. the book is supposed to help us learn things from it but i really don't feel like i learned any thing in my book. That is why i feel as if my book that i read shouldn't matter or should not be read today. I rest my case.
War:
War . What is it exactly? Do we really have wars because of other people? I don't think that is the reason we have wars, wars complicate things that were never as complicated as they were before.One country attacks another country attacks creating more damage than there was before it just makes everything worse when people fight but instead of sitting down and working out your problems and considering what's best for everyone we decide to bomb and kill citizens you all may see this as a way to communicate threats and get someone to back down easily but it shouldn't be that way. Many adults teach and tell children "violence is not the answer" and that you should solve problems by talking it out, maybe they should take their own advice and learn to own up to their mistakes when they make one. Children won't listen to adults that they see don't even listen to each other if an adult tells a child that they are going to have to learn how to talk things out with people and then turn around and see the adult doing the same thing that they just told them not to they are going to think it is right to do whatever it is they are doing. Nowadays people don't even let others talk they just blurt out whatever comes to mind without thinking and people get hurt by it and sometimes when that happens it causes them to lash out on their families, themselves, and others. My book im reading is about a girl and her family having to deal with their brother/son/boyfriend leaving for the military. The only reason he joined is because franklin delano roosevelt promised that no one would get drag into and foreign wars of any sort. But then one day pearl harbor is bombed by the japanese and hank's (pipers brother) ship is one who had gotten blown up and they dont hear about it for day many people died at pearl harbor because the japanese didn't want to live up to their agreements to have peace. They basically just bombed pearl harbor for no reason, just because they wanted to start a fight that had already been solved and done with. |
