Children's book excerpt: I am ecstatic. (That's a fancy word for happy.) We're going to get a puppy - a real one. I hope we get a papillon, like our neighbor's dog. You say it like this: pappy-yawn. In French it means butterfly. Great Gatsby Article: I can't account for all the reasons people love The Great Gatsby: perhaps for its champagne parties and of course for its glitz, elegance, gorgeous cars, enormous estates, and Gatsby's vast collection of shirts. I remember my mother telling me she thought The Great Gatsby was popular with college students because it is a short book and an easy read. It was popular in Russia too; she speculated they liked to use it as an example of capitalism gone awry. Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets excerpt: Raindrops the size of bullets thundered on the castle windows for days on end; the lake rose, the flower beds turned into muddy streams, and Hagrid's pumpkins swelled to the size of garden sheds. Oliver Wood's enthusiasm for regular training sessions, however, was not dampened, which was why Harry was to be found, late one stormy Saturday afternoon a few days before Halloween, returning to Gryffindor Tower, drenched to the skin and splattered with mud. Article on Greek Mythology: The world of Greek mythology was not a place of terror for the human spirit. It is true that the gods were disconcertingly incalculable. One could never tell where Zeus's thunderbolt would strike. Nevertheless, the shole divine company, with a very few and for the most part not important exceptions, were entrancingly beautiful with a human beauty, and nothing humanly beautiful is really terrifying. The early Greek mythologists transformed a world full of fear into a world full of beauty. Lastly, justify your choices, based on the article and the reference articles on a google doc. Tell me which font you chose for each excerpt, why you chose it, and how it is appropriate. Post the visual work to your portfolio and share the google doc with me - [email protected]
