Book Review: Percy Jackson Series

Image
I have read hundreds of books but one of my favorite book series is The Percy Jackson's. They are the books of adventure, thrill, a bit inspiration and a world of fantasy. These stories are written by Rick Riordan. There are following books in this series: 1. The Lightning Thief 2. Sea of Monsters 3. The Titan's Curse 4. Battle of Labyrinth 5. The Last Olympian Characters : Perseus (Percy) Jackson the main character, Annabeth Chase the other main character, Grover Underwood Percy's best friend and Luke who is the main evil character. These are the main characters around who the whole stories revolve but there are tons of minor characters. Plot : These stories circulate around a boy named Perseus Jackson, nicknamed Percy. He is a dyslexic and is diagnosed with ADHD. In the first book he is 12 and attends Yancy's School for Troubled Kids. He is a bit negative and bitter at this fact but his mother is fully supportive. She tells Percy everything would be alrigh...

Sea waves Erosion and Deposition

Image
Most of these waves form from wind blowing over the water; sometimes steady winds that blow and sometimes from a storm that forms over the water. The energy of waves does the work of erosion when a wave reaches the shore. The highest part of a wave is called the   wave crest. The lowest part is called the   wave trough. The vertical distance from the highest part of a wave to the lowest is called the   wave height. The horizontal distance between one wave crest and the next crest, is called the   wavelength.    Wave-cut cliffs form where waves cut into the bottom part of the cliff, eroding away the soil and rocks there. First the waves cut a notch into the base of the cliff. If enough material is cut away, the cliff above can collapse into the water. Many years of this type of erosion can form a   wave-cut platform   .I f waves erode a cliff from two sides, the erosion produced can form an open area in the cliff called an   a...

Warning Stories: Save me from Mother!

My second Warning Story, Save Me From Mother! : T'was year 3029, the not-so-respected Respected John Howard Clienthel Dranih Eatsmain Grundienth Savily the II or John for short was littering again. It was the century of cleanliness but nothing mattered to him. All eyes were on him. Everyone felt like teaching him a lesson, but he was the 'unspoken' leader (actually the dictator, but no one was brave enough to say that) of them so they had no power.No one could do anything. But far away there was one more person watching him with red hot anger, and who was about to do something. Day after day John littered and that person's anger increased. Finally, on April 24 it was the final straw. He started littering mass time, he had no limits. 'The person' was mad and started unfolding. I know what your thinking: unfolding, what!? 'The person' was actually the Earth, or Gaia (the Greek goddess of the Earth). She is technically the 'mother' of all. So...

Debate

Debate:  Antics and Rhetoric’s matter a lot in winning or losing an election. Side: I am for this statement. Content: Antics and Rhetoric’s definitely matter a lot in winning or losing an election. This is so as to win one needs to be identified and distinguished as a leader by telling the people in an amusing and persuading way.  A politician’s antics should be proper and not to silly too. He must amuse the people but not irritate or annoy them too. Antics connect with the masses sometimes and help in gaining popularity.  His rhetoric’s or way of speaking, have to be in such a way that he persuades the people to vote for him. The mass does not like a boring politician who speaks too little or a silly politician who speaks too much, or vice versa. Antics and rhetoric’s are tools like a knife. If a knife is used for good purpose or bad one, it depends on the user. It is same with antics and rhetorics. Politicians must use these elements not only win an electi...
