I'm writing a college paper over childrens author, David Shannon.  My question why is David running naked?

It is funny!  Kids laugh when they see it.  It is possible that the author was simply trying to entertain his readers.  There is also the fact that little children LOVE to run around the house naked.  My daughter enjoyed it when she was little, now my son is just growing out of that stage.  I think they feel free, and we as parents always laughed which gave them a sign of approval.  It's cute when they are babies.  The difference in the David Shannon book is that David is outside on the street instead of running through the living room.  I think he placed the character outside to give a shock laugh to the children readers.  It is very innocent, as are the early years of childhood.  The joke is that David sees nothing wrong with parading down the street innocently, meanwhile mom is going insane with embarrasment.  Children love to make parents shreik.  My little boy loves it when we wrestle and I act like he is pinning me, or when he does something and I act super surprized.  It's the "child in charge" thing.  Very entertaining and funny to young children.  Both of our children love David Shannon's work.

The back of the book will mention the oar O. had to carry.\n\nRead the book, already! It's the best adventure story ever written. There's lotsa sex!\n\nAnd if you want to impress your teacher, notice that whenever O. takes a bath, the goddess -- or her representative -- is present.

Now that's a creative question! Took me a few reads, martial marital, yeah...\ndo boxers abstain from sex? I don't believe Bruce Willis did in Pulp Fiction...hmmm\nor are boxers stained by sex? Like Monica's blue dress.\nI just don't know these things. OH I KNOW---I'll go call my son's wresting coach! He'll know, yeah! Okay, I'll get back with you on that. He can answer the sin question too, since he's the coach for a Catholic school--right? Er, wait-he's got 9 kids. He won't know crap about abstaining. Well, I'll call the priest. He goes to all the wrestling matches, he'll have an idea.

Good person to write about!!  I agree with everyone else's answers; Mark Twain captured life in the 1800s, the human spirit, and he did it with a brilliant sense of humor.  He used a lot of sarcasm, which most people your age can relate to!  Although his books are fictional, they are a great resource for learning about American history- people's accents, slang, and what they did for fun.\n\nGood luck w/ your paper, I'm sure it'll be great!

don't do it. that IS plagiarism. it is a serious thing. this guy i know used to go to my college. he was smart, well loved and respected. he was a very important person in our community. he was accused of plagiarism and kicked out without a hearing. if you are not a good writer you should take this opportunity to practice so you don't get screwed later on.

Beacuse there are a lot of beautiful naked bodies in the world, and because it is interesting. Maybe he gets some ideas off the internet to try with you.

It is with great trepidation I discuss the creation of the new nation.  It's current recreation is fornication which has lead to drastic dehydration and procreation.  We need to find a location for the re-hydration station as it's current situation is in need of relocation.\n\nI've done the paragraph and I am filled with humiliation at the state of my exultation.

They wont be published until he stops eating the crayons the health department says\n\nThe books are being reprinted so the lines can be made bigger, this will stop Bush getting upset when he colours over the lines

I love the one that is a poem about the monster under the bed and hobbes saves the day by just being there (cause the monster didn't know there was a tiger in the bed).  Best Line: "Hey wake up you stupid cretin! Are you gonna sleep while I get eaten!?!?!?"  I'll check my collection books and see if I can find page number for the rest of ya.

I'm glad you asked that, not because I have the answer but because me and my daughter, well . . . me anyways, are reading Moby Dick, and I never remembered it being so detailed on Cetology or in the beginning of the novel before he meets Queequeg.   Maybe I cheated back in my highschool or junior high days and got the Cliff Notes, but I coulda swore I read the book.  Oh well, that's been many decades ago.  I just got past the part where Captain Ahab kicked Stubb (First Mate isn't he??) and Stubb had the dream where someone asks him why is it so bad to be kicked by Ahab since his leg is made of ivory,etc..  My daughter, who lives with her mother about 65 miles southeast of me, probably hasn't read one word of it since she's a lot like her mother, who didn't like to read.  I read "Uncle Tom's Cabin" to her when she was pregnant with either our son or daughter, I can't remember which.  She liked to be read to but wouldn't do it herself, so, I doubt my daughter has read any of "Moby Dick" since she hasn't said anything about it.  Oh well, I'm rambling on.  Sorry.  Maybe I'll continue the book, but the Cetology part is way too detailed and "informational" for me.  I want more "action", and am becoming too addicted to the brainless tv, and too lazy to read fine novels.  I hope you finish the book.  It's a wonderful piece of literature.  God Bless you.

Ok, now that is just plain cheating. Read the book. When I was a kid, we didn't have the internet to cheat with homework. No wonder the newspaper headlines are screaming:\n\nWhy are our kids idiots??

I thought he got kicked out when Naparis disappeared, instead he is trying to hide. I got an e-mail from someone saying he got Naparis kicked out. I haven't reported him, but very tired of it all. \nEDIT:\nI think I said it wrong. This morning a lady poster told me she thought Stephanvest got Naparis kicked out. Why are only people on the right getting in trouble, I never report anything, but the real nasty kids. Not politics
