Comments: I really enjoyed reading the children's fables during this week's storytelling assignments. I think that it'd be interesting to really dive into the wolf stories that are featured. Wolves have always fascinated me, and I really appreciate the morals in each of the wolf fables.
Possible Stories: There are a lot of fables about wolves when I searched, even on the Untextbook! This is exciting because if I choose this topic, I will have a lot to take from and use.
Sample Story: The Wolf and the Kid - I chose this story because of the moral. "Do not let anything turn you from your purpose." This is a very wise and thought out moral that fits with the story. I love morals that can fit with my everyday life.
