For me, if 'The Hobbit' is my favorite fantasy story, it's special because of Bilbo Baggins. He starts as an ordinary hobbit but grows into a hero. His journey through the Misty Mountains, facing trolls, goblins and Smaug the dragon is exciting. It shows that even the smallest of us can achieve great things.
If my favorite is 'Harry Potter', it's special due to its richly created wizarding world. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a place full of magic, mystery and friendship. The characters like Harry, Hermione and Ron are so relatable. The story also deals with themes of love, sacrifice and the fight against evil in a very engaging way. It has made a whole generation fall in love with the idea of magic.
If my favorite love story is Romeo and Juliet, what makes it special is the intensity of their love. In a world full of hate between their families, their love was like a bright light. It was a love that was willing to sacrifice everything, including their lives. Their story has been told and retold for centuries, becoming an iconic representation of true love that defies all odds.
The characters in 'My Favorite Chaperone' make it special. The main character's journey and growth are really engaging. Also, the cultural elements add depth to the story.
It's special because it's yours. It's a story that has been created by you and your partner, with all the unique quirks and beautiful moments that are exclusive to your relationship.
One of my favorite science fiction stories is 'Ender's Game'. What makes it special is its exploration of complex themes like morality in war. Ender, a child prodigy, is trained to fight an alien race. The story makes you question the cost of victory and the nature of the enemy. It also has great character development as we see Ender grow from an innocent boy to a battle - hardened leader.
In the case of 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas', it's special because it shows that Christmas isn't about the presents and the trappings. The Grinch tries to steal Christmas from the Whos in Whoville, but he fails because the Whos still celebrate with love and joy in their hearts even without the material things. It's a powerful reminder of what the holiday is truly about.
Many Japanese novels, like Haruki Murakami's works such as 'Norwegian Wood', are great at exploring complex human emotions. They can make you feel the characters' loneliness, love, and confusion on a very deep level. This emotional depth is what makes them special.
The shared emotions make it special.
I think it's special due to the fact that Roy Rogers probably has his own take on Christmas. It could be that the story is set in a really interesting time or place. It might have characters that are easy to love and relate to. Also, it could have some great Christmas traditions shown in it that make it a favorite for many.
For 'The Tell - Tale Heart', it's the psychological aspect. The way the narrator's mind slowly unravels is what makes it special. His guilt over the murder makes him hear things that may or may not be real. It really gets into the human psyche and how our own minds can be our worst enemies.
For 'The Little Prince', it's the simplicity yet depth of the story. The simple illustrations and the straightforward language used in the story hide a lot of philosophical ideas. It's special because it can be read on different levels, whether you're a child just enjoying the adventure or an adult thinking about the deeper meanings.
