Week 9: Reading Notes - Dutton Fables of Bidpai

Part B (note: I do read all of the stories, I just only make notes from the ones I think I will use.)

The Rustic and the Nightingale - I like that at the end of this story the Rustic lets the bird go and the bird rewards him with the knowledge of the pot of gold. I feel like in most of these stories one or more of the characters does something stupid and everyone gets screwed over. I also like this story cause I can see a good application for it for my usual characters!

The King, The Falcon, and the Drinking-cup - I don't think I would use this story to make one of my own, but for some reason the story just really touched me and I wanted to make note of it! I had a feeling the bird was trying to save the king but it is awful that he killed it!

The Merchant and His Iron - This story would be fun to use with just young Gregor or just Penny-Nichole. They can both be pretty damn spunky!

The Lion and the Hare - This story reminds me of a book I read once called the Lottery. Its only sort of the same but it could be interesting to use this story to incorporate into one of my own.
