Aladdin Monkeys Paw Compare and Contrast

• Although many people want, dream, and plead for
  wishes, they dont know the outcome of the
  wishes. Some people receive what they want, but
  their wish can lead them to sorrow. People ask
  questionswill this wish change my life? Will it
  hurt someone I love? Will it bring me what I
  want? Is it really worth it?

Genre

• Monkeys Paw

• Aladdin

• The Genre of the Monkeys Paw is to Entertain. I
  say this because its spooky and trying to
  entertain you. In the Monkeys Paw it was written
  to give the readers a good book to entertain the
  reader. To find out the genre I used process of
  elimination.

• As for the Aladdin it is the same. Entertainment.
  I say this because its full Genies, magical
  wishes, and many other fiction animations. If the
  genre is Entertainment then it will fiction
  characters, animals that talk, and many other
  things. In Aladdin, it has all the evidence for
  Aladdin to be entertainment.
