UnTextbook

The following are units in the UnTextbook I am excited to learn about:

Celtic Fairy Tales. This chapter looks interesting because my background is from Wales and I already have a brief idea about the rich traditional and folklore they have. I also think the writing style will be easy to understand because of the literary prose

American Indian Fairy Tales: I think this sections seems interesting because there is a storyteller behind all the tales, which I believe stays true to the oral tradition of storytelling. I think I will enjoy some of this content because of my limited background in Native American music class.

Brothers Grimm (Ashliman): I've always been interested in the Grimm brothers, so I'm excited to learn more about the history and some of the stories I may have not heard. I also think learning about the Bible-based folklore will be cool.

The Monkey King Sun Wu Kung: I mean the Monkey Kind title alone was what interested me from the get go. I also think the Chinese culture is rich in folklore and tradition, so i think it will be a fun chapter to read about.
