Percy and Jason

Author's Note: I wrote this piece to demonstrate my understanding of  intros




What if the two main characters of The Mark of Athena started fighting to see which one was stronger? In The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan, the two main characters, Percy and Jason, sail to Rome to stop Gaea's forces. In trying to do this, Percy gets into trouble and Jason tries to save him. Throughout the book there are many similarities and differences between the two strong characters, Percy and Jason.
One similarity is that they're both sons of the Big Three. Percy Jackson is the son of Jason, Grace is the son of Zeus. Both gods broke their promise by having Jason and Percy.

Another similarity is that they both went to each others camp. Jason went to Camp-Halfblood while Percy went to the Roman camp. Hera, the queen of the gods,put them in the other’s camp to make peace between both camps.

One last similarity is that they both have special horses. Percy has a Pegasus named Blackjack. Jason has a Storm Spirit Horse named Tempest.

Besides similarities, there are also differences between these two characters. One main difference is how they got their horses. Percy saved his Pegasus from Luke,while Jason took control of his Storm Spirit Horse. Another difference is that Jason’s dad is the king of the gods while Percy’s dad is Zeus’ brother. The last difference is that  Percy is Greek and Jason is Roman.

Even though Percy and Jason may never fight, both of them are strong and heroic characters. I will continue to read more of Rick Riordan's series to see what will happen to these two characters.

Dewy and his rubber bands


 Oh no dewy give back that rubber band Dewy is a library cat that likes to steal rubber bands and eats  them he once stole a giant rubber band we thought we hid all the bands but in a coffe mug there are  rubber bands in it. So we put a cover on it and the next day latter there were bite marks on the cover
So it was the coffee mug was dewy source of rubber bands. 

Now dewy  loves catnip give him a little bit and he will go crazy and start rolling around on the floor.
He even snakes around like he has no spine. After while he calms down . Dewy  loves the needles on a fake Christmas tree.

Thanks to dewy antics the library is more fun. Dewy is not like any other cat, he is a friend.

One Piece and Letter Bee

Author's note: I wrote this piece to demostrate my understanding of compare and contrast





What if One Piece and Letter Bee were pitted against each other to see which book is better? I am comparing the two books One Piece and Letter Bee and their two main characters. The two main characters are Luffy and Lag. Both characters have many similarities and differences.

One of the similarities is that they both have really strange animals. Luffy’s strange animal is a deer that can transform into all these cool forms including a giant deer form. Lag’s strange animal is a creature called Steak that when someone cooks him, his fur curls.

Another similarity is they both have strange powers.
Lag’s strange power is he can make a piece of his heart resonate in monsters, which destroys.Luffy’s strange power is that he  can stretch his body like rubber.

They both have friends that they count on. Luffy counts on his first mate, Zoro, who is a swordsman. Lag counts on his friend, Niche, whose hair is the golden sword.

A difference is that Luffy is more courageous than Lag. Luffy is more upbeat than Lag and because of that, Lag cries more than Luffy. This last difference is that Lag’s mom is alive and Luffy’s dad is alive.

Luffy and Lag may be two different characters but they have similarities and differences. One Piece and Letter Bee may be two different books but they are very good books and I will continue to read them.
