Reading Plans

While looking through the Native American choices for Weeks 9 and 10 a few stories stood out to me. The first one I'd like to read is the Native American Marriage Tales by Stith Thompson. I like that some of the stories are longer than just one page so they can go more in depth with the plot. Hopefully it'll make it easier for me when trying to write my storytelling for the week. The story about the deer bringing her human husband to live with her family seemed like it would be interesting. I'm particularly excited to read that story! Another story that caught my attention was the Tejas Legends. Since I'm from Texas I think it'll be really interesting reading these stories from the Tejas Indians. I also am excited to read about where Texas got its name! I enjoy reading about animals and nature so I think this will be a good choice for me.
