Creighton Brown vs. Alex Rider

Characters from books are super similar. They all share some sort of the same talents, personalities, or age. The two characters that are most alike are Creighton Brown and Alex Rider. They have a lot of similarities and differences; they are both Brave quick and smart,and they get into bad situations all the time.

A similarity between Alex and Creighton is there same bravery and the their age. They are always using their bravery like Alex uses his when he goes against Scorpia a terrorist organization where he has to defend for himself even though he is super scared. Creighton uses his by going into new territory and trying to fit in with his surroundings.He tries to fit in with his American friends but it's really hard because he was brought up by English people who are totally different. They are very moody to at one point Creighton totally went crazy  because he didn't get his Ale from the bartender. And Alex went crazy when his friend went to move to Los Angles but she was only staying there for a year. They both have their times when they both look like hero's and baby's. 

Some other similarities are their physical abilities and reactions to some situations.  They both are quick acting if a dangerous situation comes around they both know what to do right away.  Like Alex who spotted a girl hanging from a building went up and got her right away with no hesitation. And Creighton who saw Indians tying to burn down a printing shop went out and tried to fight them off and won. Soon after he saw a man who was trapped under the collapsed shed. This is how Creighton and Alex are so much alike.  

Some differences are the personalities. Alex is super out going he perks up to everyone. On the other hand Creighton is really shy and is grouchy to everyone. Alex's personality is really cool everyone likes him. Compared to Creighton he almost has no friends and  not everyone likes him including his parents. He really needs to lighten up to the idea of people because he tries to ignore them as much as he can. These are the differences between Alex Rider and Creighton.    

This shows how characters from books are very much alike. All character's from books have some sort of relation to another character. They either show it in their actions, personalty, or their intelligence. This is how different book character are all alike in some way.   

Cause and effect

In the book Year of the Hang Man the main character Creighton has had many conflicts which results in good results and bad ones. The main cause and effect of this book is that Creighton is starting to second guess his English country. He started becoming friends with the Americans and now the English sees him as a traitor. He keeps telling himself how guilty he would be if he starts spying for the English because he has made so many friend with the Americans. Creighton is confused and because of that he follows his heart and goes with the American side and helps them out.   

Lost Kidergarder

Once upon a time in a big town a little kindergarten playschool was in session.  A little boy named Timothy wondered out in recess and found himself in the big city streets. When he realized that he was lost he cried for help then a white van came out of no where. The man in the Van said hi kid I recognize you are you lost and Timothy said yes. So he hopped into the van and drove off with the man. He seemed to vaguely remember him. When the teacher noticed Timothy was gone they went straight to the authorities. This was a curtail moment for him because the man in the van went to the Police station to turn in the boy when they got their the man got arrested right away.

When the trail happened little Timothy had to testify against the man and he said that he was just trying to help him out but the court didn't listen. He wanted the man to be innocent but he just couldn't persuade.  The jury had a decision and it was guilty he felt terrible but then Timothy's mom came and said I know this man he would never to this he was just trying to help me out. Then the jury once again had a decision and said he is innocent.  Everyone was okay and turns out the guy in the Van married his mom because his Dad died and everything turned out great.       

Point of View

Author's note this piece is a point of view from my character in the book Year of the Hangman.

My book is told in my main character Creighton's point of view.He is a young 15 year-old boy who got shipped off to America from England to visit his uncle. They soon get hijacked by pirates who are American patriots and sailed to New Orleans. He is set free because he is a kid but his uncle is not. He now is on his own and starts working for Ben Franklin and is expected to spy.

He changes this story so much because his point of view is all on England side and everyone else is on America's side. He truly believes that Ben Franklin is the worst person in the world.Like  when they play cards he think that Ben Franklin is a cheater and is constantly telling the wrong side of the story. He says that these people are cruel people to the England but they really aren't he just says that because he's never been around a American and can't except the differences of them.
