Stephen Seagull is Bad
'Stephen Seagull is Bad' is a children's picture book written by Dawn Lippiatt. Stephen Seagull teaches what is good and bad. Dawn Lippiatt has written this book about a seagull named Stephen to live up to what his father seems to think how a seagull should behave. Stephen wants to make his father proud. Will he do it? Dawn has written a picture book that is quite descriptive in and on various behaviors exhibited by the main character of Stephen Seagull. The artwork seems to give me the impression of watercolors or even the use of pastels to give the readers the sense of a seaside environment and how seagulls live and act around others. The use of boldface words for emphasizing various words was a good technical device for young readers to understand the story. It could also be a good story to share about various cultures just by seeing some of the human characters and how they look.

These are the most annoying characters on Desperate Housewives
It's always good to re-watch an old series, especially when it feels like you are watching it again for the first time. The TV show Desperate Housewives was very popular in the 2000's, and I watched it as a kid, not really understanding what was going on. But now as an adult, you do catch on with what's going on and also have an opinion about everything.
