Reading Notes: The Grimm Brothers' Children's and Household Tales

The Grimm Brothers' Children's and Household Tales translated by D. L. Ashliman (1998-2013)

The little red riding cap was definitely interesting to read and not at all what I was expecting. I could write about how the wolf caught up to her in the woods and what they talked about there. I just wonder why he did not just eat her there. No one would have caught him there. I think I would change the ending though so that they do not have to open his stomach and rescue them but rather save them before they get eaten by the wolf.

Reading Notes: Household Stories by the Brothers Grimm

Household Stories by the Brothers Grimm, translated by Lucy Crane and illustrated by Walter Crane (1886).

I could write about how Aschenputtel managed to escape from the prince each night and the adventures. I could also write about the task her step-mother gave her in thinking that she would never be able to finish them. Then add the part about how her friends the birds would always come and help her out no matter what she needed help with. The way her step-sisters tried to fit the show on and how she managed to end up with him after all.

Reading Notes: Pattanaik's Secret Secrets of Vishnu: (Rama & Krishna)

Pattanaik's Secret Secrets of Vishnu: Rama & Krishna (2011)

I could talk about the two avatars of Vishnu: Rama and Krishna. The way each of them were born because each has a great back story and even after once they were born. They had great yagnas so that they would have sons born. While krishna was born after the murder of his siblings by his own uncle. He killed all seven of his sisters children and tried to do the same with Krishna. I feel like this would be a great story to tell since it not something that you can hear about normally.
