Word Wizard: Me Discussion Director: Cheisya Literary Luminary: Nandini Illustrator: Mima The elements of chapter 18 in the All Creatures Great and Small and the short story of The interlopers have some differences from each other. First of all, the settings are different because, the setting of the book wagon Newton Road as well as hilly landscapes. Meanwhile, the setting in the story was the Carpathian Mountain in the land of Gradwitz. It was described as the dark and gloomy. But, there is also a similarity in both of them. Which is, both of the settings are natural settings and out door.
The comparison of each story shows that the mood in both of the stories are different as well from each other. The mood of All Creatures Great and Small is more relax and fun when its compared to The Interlopers. The mood of the short story is more like mysterious and gloomy, and there are also elements of mysterious humour, and irony. The Characters of the stories also differ from each other. The story of All Creatures Great and Small follows the story or journey of James Herriot, a new vet. He is an optimist kind of a person that he cares about the animals. The short story follows the character of Ulrich and Georg. These characters are pessimists, cynical, and sardonic. The character of Herriot saves animal while the characters in the short stories are hunted by animals. DISCUSSION DIRECTOR : Me
CONNECTOR : Mima - In a real life job, there’ll be a point especially in the beginning where things go down (when mr. Soams underestimate Herriot) - At some times, we will have to solve a problem alone without someone to accompany us (Dr. Farnon couldn’t go on duty, so Herriot have to face his first call alone) - Not all people will agree with our decision until they’re proven wrong, so do what is right. (When Herriot have to kill the horse cause the disease is killing it, but mr. Soams say that its a wrong things. But turns out Herriot’s diagnose is right) WORD WIZARD : Aliya 1.
