        Citation Styles and RefWorks

When you write a paper sometimes writer want to use ideas that they have read in information other resources. example writers may want to use a quotation the writer must indicate that the idea or the words came from someone else and give credit to that writer.  This action indicating that writers’ words are not original but rather from another source is called citing. This paper focuses on the types of citation styles and I selected the library resource that describes about different citation styles. Some of the citation styles is American Psychological Association (APA) citation, (MLA) style Modern Language Association, Chicago/Turabian , American Chemical Society (ACS) American Sociological Association (ASA)  and Citing Government Publications  those are electronic sources as Web Publications. 
       APA (American Psychological Association) style is most commonly used to cite sources within the social sciences. For various sources may be formatted differently, all included sources (books, articles, Web sites, etc.) This resource, revised according to APA manual, offers examples for the general format of APA research papers, in-text citations Contributors names (Last edited date). Title of resource Retrieved from http:// Web address for the resource. MLA style and also formatted differently, all included sources (books, articles, Web sites, etc.)specifies guidelines for formatting manuscripts and using the English language in writing. MLA style also provides writers with a system for referencing their sources through parenthetical citation in their essays and Works Cited pages. When we use Online Article from a Database Last name , Firstname. "Article Title." Journal Title volumenumber.issuenumber (year): pages. Database Name. Web. date accessed. Chicago Manual of Style This section contains information on the Chicago Manual of Style method of document formatting and citation.

      The Chicago Manual of Style (CMS) covers a variety of topics from manuscript preparation and publication to grammar, usage, and documentation and has been lovingly called the “editors’ bible.” The material in this resource focuses primarily on one of the two CMS documentation styles: the Notes-Bibliography System (NB), which is used by those in literature, history, and the arts The Chicago NB system is often used in the humanities and provides writers with a system for referencing their sources through footnote or endnote citation in their writing and through bibliography pages. It also offers writers an outlet for commenting on those cited sources. The NB system is most commonly used in the discipline of history.

       These sours contain Introduction to notes, Introduction to bibliographies and Common Elements Author’s Names Titles, Publication Information and also Punctuation. When we talks about another Citation Styles it is American Sociological Association (ASA) and American Chemical Society (ACS) This resource covers American Sociological Association (ASA) style and includes information about manuscript formatting, in-text citations, formatting the references page, and accepted manuscript writing style. When we see Reference Examples Book with One Author Author's full name, inverted so that last name appears first. Year. Book Title in Title Caps and Italicized. Publishing City: Publisher. ACS style conventions for citing references within a manuscript and for listing complete reference. this citation In ACS publications, you may cite references in text in three ways: first  By superscript numbers, which appear outside the punctuation if the citation applies to a whole sentence or clause. Second way by italic numbers in parentheses on the line of text and inside the punctuation third by author name and year of publication in parentheses inside the punctuation  (known as author–date).  Final for this paper is Citing Government Publications consisting of documents issued by local, regional, or national governments or by their agencies or subdivisions for this citing we can uses APA and MLA style.

Summary

In this chapter Conor talks about how his travel to Bangkok in January turned to a trip around the world and kept his heart in the little princess orphanage which made him come back to Nepal after he left for united states for a year on January 2005. He talks about the story of the children in little princess orphanage, the instability of Nepal at the time and how the conflict affected him, kids and the entire country.
When Conor first arrived in Bangkok he meets up with a close friend he knew from when he was in Prague. They got together and biked around south East Asia covering a lot of countries. They traveled using their bicycles and they sailed with boats. Conor traveled all the way to South America, He gave up his bike there and meets up with his old college buddies, Charlie, Steve and Kelly. Then he flew to Peru, sailed twelve hundred miles down the amazon and experience many things. At last he flew back to New York to stay with his parents since he was broke from traveling around the world.

After a couple of weeks Conor missed Nepal and traveled back to Nepal after a year on mid-January 2006. When he went back he was surprised how the kids have grown up and how they were helping each other through their day to day life. He became more attached with the kids and Nepal felt more like home and they felt like family to him.

At this time the civil war in Nepal was worsening.Four years earlier the King of Nepal was murdered with the queen and most of the royal family by his own son because the king did not approve the marriage of the prince’s intended future wife. The prince was crowned king but died from the wound he got from shouting himself after murdering half of his family. The Maoist, the rebellion, were growing stronger, fighting against the new king.

The Nepalese people were helping the rebel by feeding the soldiers in a search of peace but things get worse every day and the people were running out of food to give to the Maoist as they grew in number. The Maoist then made a new rule that said the people need to give one child from each home to build army that fought against the King, that’s when Hair came to tell Coner that there is a roomer the Moist are planning to come to the little prince’s orphanage to take the kids for their army. Everyone was alarmed by the news but, Hari then explained his opinion to Coner that the Maoist will not take a chance to come to Kathmandu valley as it is too risky for them. The children in the orphanage then continued their daily activities.

One day a lady approached the orphanage while Conar and the kids were hanging out talking on the roof. Everyone was staring at her as she slowly approached the gates. Later the found out that she was one of the kids mother so they invited her in and one of the kids interpreted while she told her story. She sayed that a man called Golkka took money from her and other families by insuring their kids will be protected. She did not know how he did that but she took the chance to save her kids from the war and sold her house and cattle to earn money to give him. The man was trafficking kids and leaving them to orphanages saying they do not have parents and keeping the money he got from the parents to himself. He would punish and bit the kids if they tell anyone that their parents are alive so the kids were not happy to see their mother. The mother understood and left saying she will come back. Coner and Farid talked to the kids that they should not be afraid because their mother came and that no one will hurt them. They also promised them they will take them to see their mother regularly as things cool down and they did. The kids were happy. They came and tell the other kids how their day with their mother went.

One day Farid discovered that there were seven kids living with the mother of the two children that came to visit. He told Coner that they were starving and that they need to do something to help them, Coner agreed. The next day they went to the mother’s house with rice other food for kids and the mother. The violence was worsening and Coner’s day to leave the country was approaching. He was worried about the seven kids. If he leaves them with the mother they will finish the food and stave again and also be victims of the war. So he kept on looking for orphanages that will take care of the kids in but he was unlucky.

Three days before he was leaving he set up a meeting with the head of the child welfare board, a man named Gyan. To speak to him about the situation of the kids and the child trafficker called Golka. Gyan told him he was looking for this man for 2 years but was not able to find him. He said he will look for a place that will take the kids within three days and let him know. Conar got a call two days later from a Irish woman named Viva Bella, founder of Umbrella Foundation. She assured Conar that she will take all the kids in and take care of them. Conar, Farid and all the kids were happy. The next day Coner said goodbye to the kids, told them he will be back I a few weeks and left for the United States.

Analysis

Conor Grennan wrote about these events in his second part of the story to help show how his passion for these children has grown. He goes from not knowing much about any child to learning about how children can be and how they interact. In this passage, Conor travels the world and fulfills his goal to travel the world. He not only accomplished his goal but he also kept his promise to return to the children in Nepal. With this, he expressed how much love he has gained through his time with them. How he sympathises, and how bad he wants to help the children out. He shows how he keeps his word and also sets out to complete his other goals.
After he returns, two of the childrens' mother returns. Conor is thrilled at first but when he visits the mother, he finds several other children left by the child trafficker, Golkka. He returns often to help the children by bringing food. with this he shows again, how bad he wants to return hope to these children and give them a better life.
This passage, we feel, is a lot about how Conor has grown to love something he never thought of before. Also about how little can make a big difference in someones life. Like when Conor and Farid visit the seven children. They slowly open up everytime they come around, providing food and joy to the children.

He was in temptation to leave the children he felt uncomfortable because He had basically established a father and child connection with all of the children. This time when he returned to Nepal, he was going to do it because he had turn into so fervently attached to the children, not because he wanted to irresponsibly do something different and interesting with his life he recognized the children like him.

 
 Provide a 500-word short review of the book Little Princes
 
The most impressions I received this book unfortunately the little prince book history related with my country history some of origination they did the same like this history of this novel. Before I read this book I heard children Adopt in Ethiopia by these books I’ve learned so much about child trafficking. Conor Grennan was initially reluctant to volunteer, unsure whether he had the proper skill, or enough passion, to get involved in a developing country in the middle of a civil war. But my first imprison was that conor  going to be the hero in his novel; however, he convinced my perspective .Conor was a man how cared about the children that nobody cared about he was soon stunned by the group of disorderly, resilient children who would challenge and reward him in a way that he had never imagined. When Connor learned the unthinkable truth about their situation, he was amazed the children were not orphans at all. Those Children traffickers were promising families in remote villages to protect their children from the civil war - for a huge fee - by taking them to safety. They would then abandon the children far from home; in the chaos of Nepal's capital Kathmandu .his event in his life to others he definitely had my heart too. In fact I wanted to know even more about this country and its people because the children in the book really warmed my heart. It absolutely broke my heart to learn that parents in Nepal will give their children to strangers in the hopes that these strangers will provide a better life for their sons and daughters, when in actuality these strangers are child traffickers looking to sell the children to the highest bidder.Conor He started out this journey as just a regular person, not sure how he could make a difference in the world and not at all sure if he even wanted to try. But once he came to the orphanage and met these children it was like a light bulb went on and he just knew that his purpose was to help these children find their families. The book describes how Conor became emotionally attached to the children of Little Princes home he was volunteering at during the latter stages of the civil war. He goes into detail about liaising with Umbrella and highly praises our work rescuing children from corrupt and abusive ‘orphanages’ in Kathmandu. The Purpose was to help these children find their families. And he told his story with such grace and humor. I found this book is one that recommend to everybody to read because  he writes insightfully and he cares about for the Human Bing it teaches us love and respect for the children and for all peoples it is one of the best book I read.
