Totch Brown's memoirs of vanished days in the Ten Thousand Islands and the Everglades are invaluable as well as vivid and entertaining. Totch is a natural-born storyteller. His accounts of fishing and gator-hunting, as well as his life beyond the law as gator poacher and drug runner, are evocative and colorful, fresh and exciting. What is the author's purpose in writing this selection?

A. is the answer i think

Ibelieve the topic sentence is [1] keeping my mind on my writing is not easy when i stay at my grandfather's ocean-side cottage. hope this : )

Hi! your answer would be  the women's association.  here's why:   "the childrens toys" should be "the children's toys".  there's no apostrophe anywhere, and should go after "children". it does  not go after the 's' because children is already plural, and you usually only add an apostrophe after a plural noun ends with an s, like boys or girls, for example. that is the boys' toys."the women's association", is correct.  it's kinda like the one above.  "the childrens' toys", is not correct. reason why is explained in the first one.  "none of these" isn't correct, because "the women's association" is correct.  hoped i and if you have any more questions, ask me.  -dawn
