The “Lord of the Flies” is a sympathetic book to many who understand how it’s like to have no adults around and to have to depend on your surroundings and peers. Several of the guys look up to one or two of the characters in the story. Several points in the story contributes with a whole new aspect of life for these kids. As you begin to realize,Many other books contribute with its theme as well, and the characteristics of the characters also portray to others. Some books referring to others aspects of life; including, different ideas from other critics have also been a huge moment in time.
The article, “
My Hero: Extraordinary People on the Heroes Who Inspire Them” by Elie
Wiesel, is an extraordinary story about how this author feels towards “real” heroes. He explained how many of these heroes are not exactly heroes. In his opinion, he states that,what we believe to be,heroes are just in our heads, and they're false prophecies. These heroes make us believe that they have all the power under their control, and, for some silly reason, we tend to always believe them. “ I can do something. I can change this and make a difference.” He’s stating that we (ourselves) can make a change, and even if others don't see it that way. We will truly know that we are within . Being inspired by others can also help us become heroes because of what is being processed through our minds. And lets not forget that other people or things can inspire us all.

“God’s Not Dead,”by Harold Cronk, is in great relation to “My Hero: Extraordinary People on the Heroes Who Inspire Them” because of one stupendously reason pointed out in the article above.
Elie Wiesel said that, in his lifetime, he had a teacher that threw him off about his faith, and in “God’s
Not Dead”, The professor at the college refers to the same thing to the antagonist of the film. In the film, it’s shockingly and intelligently impressive the way that this person could make his own student deny his own Faith. I mean I thought this was America! The point is, is that both articles have there own obstacle and they both have to confront and prove them that they've got it all wrong.
“My Hero: Extraordinary People on the Heroes Who Inspire Them”, can be related to a specific
Golding novel. “Lord of the Flies” has similar references to this short article, and, all throughout these two pieces of literature, they, some, how seem to astonish me and their audience as we keep on reading.
The authors of these two references have won nobel prizes throughout their career, and have astonishly inspired others to create their own works of art,for example: music, films,and their own form of literature. Based on the authors backgrounds, it states that they lived in the time period in where the dictator of the nazi’s was in the process of destruction. If you know what exactly happened throughput that period then you could probably say that it wasn't the best experience a person could have. This could have been the reason that led these authors wrote as they did; the tirade that Hitler created , throughout millions of people, could have influenced them completely. They no longer saw the world as it was before, and the environment a well changed then sufficiently. Family and surroundings created their way of thought , but not just to these two but to authors all over the world! Both of them seem to have the main idea that portrays to their similar characteristics, as listed above. another reference to the article would be “ Spider­Man.” Wiesel mentioned that many heroes seem to be disguise, and this truly relates back to Peter Parker. Him becoming almost like a spider would be pretty inscrutable for many to believe, and that is why most of us, in the beginning, are frightened by it; besides, what lies beneath the ugly truth of others can become the
