ReplyDeleteI like the story because when I first read it, it remind me to one of those soap operas that I used to watch when I was a kid, and its like if I’m watching a new version but with high definition. The only thing that I dislike form this tale is the way of how the stepmother kicked her stepdaughter and how much the stepdaughter suffered. When I heard from this story I thought it was going to be similar as “Cinderella,” but it wasn’t.
The story “conkiajgharuca,the little rag girl” form Georgia , describes a poor girl who fought for what she wanted against her stepmother and stepsister.In the beginning of the story the little rag girl’s mom died then her dad got married with some old dame. In the middle of the story the king makes a party at the church and invited everyone but the stepmother didn’t let the little rag girl go. Next, she went to the party with the cow’s help. Later, the little rag girl left the party but also she left her slipper then the king found it and went to look for her. At the end of the story the king went to the little rag girl’s house but the stepmother putted her in a basket then the little rag girl came out from the basket and tries the slipper and she became the king’s wife leaving the stepmother with a dry throat.
ReplyDeleteI like the story because its way different in stead of a fairy godmother it’s a cow. Even though its different it still shows the same meaning that no matter who you are or what you do you still have the chance to earn whatever you want obviously if you fight and work hard for it.

The last thing that happen was that he went around all the houses to find the owner until he did then they live happily ever after.
ReplyDeleteI like the story because it’s not boring and it’s different from others. This story is trying to tell you that no matter what keep working hard to become the best or become what you want. Also I like this story because at the end her step mother was left with her mouth open and with a lot of anger but she can’t take.

ReplyDeleteI like this story because it reminds me that if you’re a hardworking person great things can come up. Also the story makes me think in things that are real, for example this world has a lot of kids like Baba Yaga without parents that can protect them.

The part I liked is when the prince looked for her and they got married. And the part I don’t like is when stepmother and stepsister put Marra to clean that’s not fair.

The story of “The Wonderful Birch” from Russia describes how the poor daughter lives with the bad witch is and become the prince’s wife. In the beginning of the story, a man, a woman, and their only daughter whose sheep was missed and the woman searched in the each part of the wood and she met a witch, she did nothing but the witch changed her into a black sheep and made herself look like the woman.

They changed her into a human again, the witch and her daughter run away and the prince and his family live together with their baby forever.
ReplyDeleteI don’t like this story because it is kind of a boring story. One reason for this is this story is repeating the same thing again and again, so I think for a story needs to have a high point to let the story feels more interests. Second reason for this is although it has the protagonist and the antagonist; however, the author didn’t use the protagonist a lot so that will let the reader confused who is the main character in the story. Final reason for this is this story is too hard to believe it because how the animals can talk like a human, the magic thing, a dead person can rebirth again, and put the skin into the fire and become a human. So I don’t real like this story a lot.

End of story, the prince asked the girl to be in the place of homer.The problem was that the witch tried to convinced the prince to marry with her own daughter. But when the witch wife saw them she ran away with her daughter, and if she has not stopped she is running still, though at a great age.

Have the witch trying to kill the poor girl, but the witch never can kill her, because always have a cute guy who salve her. Finally, I like this story because have a beautiful happy end.
