Week 9: Reading Diary: American Indian Fairy Tales

American Indian Fairy Tales: Reading A

Iagoo, the Storyteller:
This story is basically introducing Iagoo. Iagoo was a storyteller that everyone trusted. He knew more than anyone about the world, and would teach children about why things are the way they are. It is setting up the rest of the stories because they are told by Iagoo.

Shin-ge-bis Fools the Noth Wind:
This story at the beginning reminded me of the movie "Frozen." That would be fun to incorporate in a rewrite somehow. This story was really long so I am not sure how I would rewrite it, but I did enjoy the story.

The Little Boy and Girl in the Clouds:
This story was nice because it had a lot of nice descriptions about life long, long ago. I would have to significantly shorten the story though. This story was about how the littlest creature, the one who no one believed in, saved two children stuck at the top of a mountain high up in the clouds.
