Dear Readers,
You have learned how to compare and contrast different topics like nonfiction and fiction; boas and pythons; TV or no TV (gasp!). Next, I would like you to take it a step further and compare and contrast your reading. You may choose two storybook characters and tell me how they are similar and different. Be sure to include text evidence in your response as well as signal words (which I have bolded below). Please read my example below. I look forward to your comments!
Your teacher,

Harry Potter from the Harry Potter Series and Percy Jackson from the Percy Jackson Series, are two very well-know storybook characters. Harry and Percy are similar because they are both young boys who face great dangers, and demonstrate courage. They both battle forces greater than themselves, but triumph in the end. Also, they are both characters from popular book series. In addition, Harry and Percy have the help of their friends like, Hermione and Annabeth to help them along the way.Although Harry and Percy are alike, they also have some significant differences. For example, Harry is an orphan, but Percy's mother is still alive. Harry deals with the world of wizards and Percy lives in a world of Greeks Gods and myths. I find both characters to be interesting and unique. I enjoy reading about their adventures.
This weekend I read the Titans Curse and a door alarm kit manual. In the Titan's Curse, Percy and his friends went to boarding school! All of his friends are happy to seem him when he returns. The manual shows you how to set up a door alarm kit system. It also tells you how to hide your treasures in cool places.
