These pieces of literature provide insights into American history. In your essay, be sure to include a brief summary of the American history shown through this literature. Be sure to include an analysis of theme, style, and tone.

2)Choose any two characters studied in this semester and compare them to one another. The characters that you choose may be characters in a story or the narrators of poetry or nonfiction. How are these characters similar? How are they different? How do you think these characters might interact if they had the opportunity? How do you think they would act if suddenly transplanted to the twenty-first century? Be sure to include direct references to the traits of the characters learned through the stories.
3)Using either “I Want to Be Miss America” or “The Struggle to Be an All-American Girl,” analyze how stereotypes and social expectations are portrayed within the text. In your response, please use two examples from the text to support your answer.
