PLEASE HELP!!!!!! Literary essay THREE Complete paragraphs Each paragraph contains FIVE complete sentences Thesis Statement Evidence to Support your thesis statement Conclusion Paragraph Proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation Discuss the theme of “Thank You, Ma’am”

I need help writing an essay comparing and contrasting Number the Stars and The Giver, both by Lois Lowry. It is due TOMORROW!!!
I have the first paragraph done but I need some help with writing the next 5. These are the directions given by my teacher:

- Goal: Write a well-developed, compare and contrast essay.

- Compare and contrast the main characters from your two books.

- Step 1: Begin to write your essay.

- Paragraph 2: A SHORT summary of your two books.

Provide a short overall summary of your two books. This paragraph should not exceed 10 sentences for BOTH books. Keep it short and sweet. :)

- Paragraphs 3-5ish: Compare and contrast

In the next few paragraphs, go into the details showing the similarities and differences in either your characters, plot, and theme, or author’s style. You may organize this however works best for you. For example, you may have one paragraph about one topic, one paragraph about the other, and one that shows similarities.

The key here is that there should be SPECIFIC examples from your texts. For example, Both of the main characters from my book have extremely difficult lives. Jack, for example, lost his mother at the age of 3 and then went on to be in foster care throughout the book. In his first foster home, he was only there a week. In the second, he didn’t get along with the family and his grades and self-esteem really suffered.

- Paragraph 6(ish): Conclusion paragraph

Reiterate your thesis statement from the introduction and give some final thoughts.

Example: Both the characters of Jack and Henry had very difficult lives and that’s what made them so similar. However, despite these similarities, they had many differences when it came to how they chose to live their adult lives. They both learned from their individual experiences. I really enjoyed both of these stories and found it interesting to see how two characters adapted and changed despite having many difficulties in their younger years.

Thank you in advance!

From What is a Desert? by Emilia Jackson

Deserts are often described as hot and dry, but only one of those is true all the time. There are hot deserts, but cold deserts exist as well. Some areas, such as parts of Greenland, can have winter temperatures as cold as –2 degrees Celsius! Deserts are defined as areas with very little rain and snow—less than 26 centimeters per year, on average. Although there is usually very little water available in deserts, many plant and animal species make these areas their home.

From Desert Adaptations by Diallo Abara

It may seem surprising that plants and animals can live in the desert. After all, plants and animals need water to survive, and the very definition of a desert is that it is a place with hardly any water. In addition, many deserts are extremely hot during the day. How do plants and animals survive in this harsh climate?

Both plants and animals have adaptations—either behaviors or parts of their bodies—that help them to live in the desert. For example, fennec foxes have large ears that allow heat to leave their bodies more easily. Camels store fat in their humps, which their bodies break down into food and water when those provisions are unavailable. Many small desert animals stay out of the hot sun during the day and come out to eat at night.

How is Jackson’s purpose different from Abara’s purpose?

Jackson provides information about desert climate, while Abara explains how animals can live in the desert.

Jackson gives details about the areas of the world where deserts are found, while Abara explains what a desert is.

Jackson explains how much precipitation falls in a desert, while Abara relates what animals need to survive.

Jackson describes winter desert temperatures, while Abara explains how daytime and nighttime temperatures differ.

Even students can get involved and make a difference in their communities. One example is a high school classmate of mine. When she was a freshman, she was very nervous about speaking in public. For a social studies research project, a teacher suggested that she visit a local nursing home. There she discovered that they needed volunteers to read to the residents. She tried it for a week and was hooked. The experience gave her confidence and brought joy to the residents. Over the years, she encouraged her friends to join her and was inspired to start the Community Service Council as a senior project. She wrote her college application essays about the impact of these experiences. Today, she’s a college service organizer and an advisor to a state legislator. This is just one example of how to make a difference in your community.

Read the passage from White Fang.

There was a rush.

What type of sentence is this?

The Curse of the Bambino

(1) On December 26, 1919, the owner of the Boston Red Sox, Harry Frazee, made a decision that would haunt fans of the club for 86 years. He sold his best player, Babe Ruth, to the New York Yankees. This transaction marked the beginning of the "Curse of the Bambino." The Curse of the Bambino was the belief that, because the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth, they would never win another World Series.
(2) Ruth helped the Red Sox win the World Series in 1915, 1916, and 1918. However, his demands for a higher salary and his poor attitude caused Frazee to look for a chance to trade him. He chose an offer from the Yankees to sell Ruth for cash.
(3) Unfortunately for the Red Sox, Ruth would go on to become the greatest player in the history of the game. After purchasing Ruth, the Yankees would go on to become the most successful baseball club in history. They won their 26th World Series title in 2000.
(4) However, the worst part of the curse was that the Red Sox came very close to winning the championship several times but suffered heartbreaking losses. For Sox fans, seeing their team suffer heartbreaking losses was worse than the fate of teams like the Chicago Cubs, who were usually too bad to even get close.
(5) Finally, in 2004, Red Sox fans were rewarded for their loyalty. The Red Sox were able to defeat their rivals, the Yankees, to advance to the World Series. Then, they easily defeated the St. Louis Cardinals. While Red Sox fans suffered for 86 years, they would say that their victory in 2004 was sweeter because they had longed for it for so many years.

Which of the following sentences would best introduce paragraph 4?
A.
At least the Red Sox were still a good team for many of those years.
B.
Meanwhile, the Red Sox failed to win a single title since the day they sold Ruth.
C.
In addition, Roger Clemens won a Cy Young award for both the Red Sox and the Yankees.
D.
The Yankees and Red Sox now have a historic rivalry.
