Essay Response
The humming bird essay is a very creative way to write an informational paper. The essay itself provides much information about humming birds; including their heart rates, sleeping patterns, prefer color, and much more. This essay stands out because it is not just straight up information overload, but it presents the info in a creative way with many details. Not only does it tell us information, but the author tells us stories that contain information of their own and that help explain the other information said. An example is the story about Jeanne Mackin who had a cat that trapped a humming bird, so the author goes on to explain how she nursed it back to health. This essay is a perfect example of a creative essay and if you ever had trouble explaining the difference between creative and regular essay you could use this humming bird essay as an example. It's not just presenting information, but doing it with a flair. The essay entitled "Farder to Reache" is more complicated in the sense that it provides a lot of information and dates, but I don't think they do it with enough creativity to stand out as a creative essay. One essay that I wish would have been finished was called "The Fine Art of Sighing." This essay seemed really interesting and creative. I believe that this would have been an excellent example of a creative essay, with its information and details. It uses common everyday objects to describe sighing, example would be "A kettle hisses. A balloon deflates." Wonderful images that capture the art of sighing.
