Here is Sedaris’ essay, a great model of an exaple essay. https://courses.lumenlearning.com/englishcomp1v2xmaster/chapter/april-paris-by-david-sedaris/
The Sedaris essay you read talks about how often people give humanistic traits to non-human–or even inanimate–objects, and sometimes they develop emotional relationships with those things that are completely out of proportion with their relative importance to other humans.
He illustrates this fact by showing, primarily in one extended example of April the spider, how he himself has fallen into this sort of relationship. Has this happened to you or do you know someone who seems to have done this?
Write an essay that illustrates how a specific person you know or heard of developed an almost human relationship with a specific animal or object.
