Maslow's Hierarchy- Zack Keehbauch

In my book Maslow's Hierarchy works with the characters in my book very well. The Nazis were the higher people and made examples out of people to scare the others. All of the Jews' hierarchies were not even a choice for them. They had their sel-actualization, esteem, belonging, safety, and physiological taken from them. They didnt have to worry about any of the other ones, their first one was always being worried upon. On the discovery channel they had this show called Man vs. Wild and the guy Bear Grilles is always worrying about these five needs in a way. He looks for food, once he gets that done, he goes to the next step and keeps going up the triangle.

The Big Question~ Zack Keehbauch

How does fear control people? That's the question my friend Quinn asked and I'm doing the same, except in a better way. But how does fear control one? It strikes emotions in people that make them do things they'd never dared of doing, things they've never dreamed of doing. Fear was struck in Katniss Ever

Zack Keehbauch- BIG QUESTION

Should someone have to go through so much to believe another? Jacob Portman's grandfather died, and before he passed, Grandpa Portman says things to Jacob about not being safe and goto the island ect. The things said get stuck in his head and starts going a little loopy. He then realizes that he wants to figure out what grandpa Portman was saying about the island. Jacobs dad tells him grandpa was crazy and blah blah blah. Jacob decides to go all the way across the world to see if his grandfather in fact a crazy old geezer. Jacob then goes through hell and back basically just to see if his grandpa was just lying about everything.

Zack Keehbauch- The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

The theme of the poem is sin and redemption. I say this because the mariner killed the bird, but on the other hand the spirit loved the bird. So the mariner sinned by killing the bird and the spirit got redemption by getting back at the mariner by tripping him out. By keeping him alive and to live and tell the story over and over and over. The romantic literature evident in "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" I'd say would have to be idealism. Idealism emphasizes the spirit, the mind, or language over matter. The spirit was there,  not caring about anything except making the mariner regret killing the bird because the spirit loved it. He made him see things, that no one would ever want to see.

Miss Peregrine's~ Zack Keehbauch

The book I chose to read was Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. I chose this one out of all of the other ones because it seemed more interesting, and it is a horror book, that grabbed my attention. So far in the book, Jacob is the main character; he's telling the story. When he was a boy, his Grandpa Portman told him stories about when he was a boy. The stories were real, and Jacob believed him and told them at school and was made fun of since. He then is 16 working at his family's business, Smart Aid, and he gets a call from his grandpa freaking out saying "They're coming for me!" and just going crazy. Jacob didnt think anythign of it because hes done stuff like this before. Jacob calls his dad and his dad asks Jacob to go over there. Jacob calls his friend Ricky to come pick him up and he does. They go over to Jacob's grandpa's house and he's not there. My question is where is he at? What happened to him? Are they gonna find him?

Theme of Book

My book has more than one theme in it, there are multiple stories in it. The themes of my book Crazy Little Things would have to be like a mystery/slightly a horror/sarcastic. I'd say its a mystery theme because the little girl, Samantha Felder, no one knows who she is. Yet they still have information on her, she died awhile back and now shes back to the pageant again. The mystery is how is she there? Is she a ghost? But it also has you thinking threw the whole story. Its slightly a horror because it has you thinking like what if i was there and saw that? It'd scare me, its a reality check basically. A little girl that no one knows of, just showing up and being splendid with her talents and shocking the whole crowd. Its sarcastic by Pamela; the director, she doesnt take it so serious and just is worried about all the parents coming and complaining about the winning choice. She just shrugs it off that Samantha was a ghost, and decides to treat it like a small joke.

Protagonist

The protagonist in my novel comes from heaven to try and win the pageant. She died on the way to her last pageant. She ends up winning the pageant, but at the end she walks out and then just disappears and leaves the crowd, parents, and the whole crew. Maybe, she was suppose to leave shock or scarce upon them. It could have been to bring the thought of whether ghost are real or not? Her role could have been to bring a change in the way the people look at the world, what's real and what's fake. I feel her role was to come back and win, but to also leave an impact on the pageant and girls. The biggest question I have is, is Samantha (the ghost) going to come to the next pageant? What was her role, like why was she sent? How is the book going to end up at the end? How are the people going to react to the whole seeing a ghost, and if they're going to believe it?
