Clearly Carter and Perrault show a bias with the characters in their stories. Carter's main character being a female whom is clever, strong, and an in-depth thinker who is always thinking ahead. This shows that the author was probably writing during the women's movement, where women began entering the work place and becoming more than mere objects or at home mothers. On the other hand Perrault's view of a young innocent child, shows with the outcome that one should learn their lesson from this story.

In this essay I showed an author's bias and point of view. From Perrault's antiquated vocabulary and writing style to Carter's beastly descriptions and real life verbiage which shows how two people can write dissimilar works off of the same story line.

The style of their writings included literary elements such as metaphors and similes, as well as descriptive writing. The readability of a story can show the approximate time that the stories were written. During Carter's time she described a young gentleman carrying a rifle and the gory details, for example, "The hunter jumped down after him, slit his throat, cut off all his paws for a trophy."(819) Perrault described a happy and bountiful youth skipping through the forest. He also blurted out on of the possible lessons that could be learned with, "The poor child, who did not know that it was dangerous to stop and listen to a wolf."(360) Carter us
