I will definitely give Sandra Urias props for being really creative in her rewrite. It was definitely not what I expected it to be. I liked the end the most. I liked that Sandra made Aurora’s character be truly “beautiful,” meaning she was pretty on the outside but also kind and caring on the inside. Because of the character being so caring I enjoyed the part of Aurora helping the alien (the person that put the curse on her) because it made me think of nursing which is what I would like my future profession to be. Aurora seemed to be an all around good person. I think the rewrite that was random in some ways but was very good and caught my eye for being different, unexpected, and not like any other fairytale I have ever read yet.ica3nursinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11379430302283769784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5776248342770596315.post-80568520450305284382009-09-23T08:50:21.171-07:002009-09-23T08:50:21.171-07:00I really did enjoy this remake of sleeping beauty....I really did enjoy this remake of sleeping beauty. I have to say it seems like so many random thoughts were pulled into this entry to really keep it at a great imaginative broad level. I loved it in the beginning how he “videoed in.” It made me laugh just because that’s how things are today. As I continued to read it, for some odd reason, there were parts that sort of reminded me of Harry Potter. It was like they were celebrating and all of a sudden this icky feeling comes over ahead, and then poof everyone needs to magically escape. It made me think that it kind of would be like when Lord Voldermont would show up around Hogswarts, and everyone would get in a panic and do their magical things to get away. I really enjoyed the ending; the fact that she was a true “beauty.” She was beautiful on the inside in that she would help the alien that cursed her. Not all fairytales are like that. As a matter of fact we were just talking in English class how Snow White was cruel for the way she brutally tortured the queen to death. <br />Colleen B.rdhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09040599869549115918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5776248342770596315.post-85972292209007456882009-08-18T06:27:58.430-07:002009-08-18T06:27:58.430-07:00Such a clever idea!
