Book 5 - The Simpsons

'The Simpsons' is not a real book, it is more like a comic. It's about a family with Mother, Father, and their 3 Children Lisa, Bart and Megan. Homer Simpson, the father, always does a lot of funny stories like he tries to loose weight or to find a job, but everything just ends up with no effort. His son Bart is also a kind of person who isn't doing usual things. He is going to school, but there, f.e. he has a few enemies, but he always met them ut of school and does some kind of funny or more weird stuff with them together. The whole book contains 6 short comics about that what happens to the family at the moment, and you can also find a few comics about Krusty, The Clown, h is also a character from 'The Simpsons', he has his own TV-Show in the show 'The Simpsons', but he is a very weird character. And you can find 2 short Comics about 'Itchy and Scrachty', a mouse and a cat, who fight each other without any word or a reason.
All in all, the comics are very funny to read and I enjoyed to read them in my free time, because they often made me laugh.

War Poetry Mini Project

Soldiers falling flat on the ground,
dead Soldiers making no sound.
Planes exploding in the Air,
these kind of things just aren't fair.
Be proud and respectful of those who are dying,
because they are the ones who keep our flag flying.
-Dylan Anson-

This think this picture referes to the poem I chose, because it shows two different parties in a War, which are fighting for one Flag. All around them are dead people on the ground, but they are still standing and fighting for their Country, motivated by other soldiers, which are standing a few meters away from them. We really should have respect for these people, who stop thinking and just fight for freedom and risk their life for us.



 

I came by today to see you
Oh I had to let you know
If I knew the last time that I held you was the last time
I'd have held you, and never let go

Oh, it's kept me awake nights, wondering
I lie in the dark, just asking why
I've always been told
You won't be called home
Until it's your time

I guess heaven was needing a hero
Somebody just like you
Brave enough to stand up
For what you believe
And follow it through
When I try to make it make sense in my mind
The only conclusion I come to
Is heaven was needing a hero
Like you

I remember the last time I saw you
Oh, you held your head up proud
I laughed inside
When I saw how you were standing out in the crowd
Your such a part of who I am
Now that part will just be void
No matter how much I need you now
Heaven needed you more

Cause heaven was needing a hero
Somebody just like you
Brave enough to stand up
For what you believe
And follow it through
When I try to make it make sense in my mind
The only conclusion I come to
Is heaven was needing a hero
Like you

Yes, Heaven was needing a hero
and that's you
