When I was first reading, I was surprised how serious his test was. From the first paragraph, the consequences of failing tests can be noticed.
"Wemicus [the animal-trickster] had a son-in-law who was a man. This man's wife, the daughter of Wemicus, had had a great many husbands, because Wemicus had put them to so many different tests that they had been all killed off except this one. He, however, had succeeded in outwitting Wemicus in every scheme that he tried on him. Wemicus and this man hunted beaver in the spring of the year by driving them all day with dogs."
When I saw this paragraph, I immediately wanted to write about this story. I want to write about details of Wemicus's tests. I do not want to write about deaths of participants, but I do want to write about how Wemicus prepared and what happened during the test. I have read some people's writing over their reading, and I thought writing what happened before the actually event was just a great idea, so I want to do that as well. The reading part of this story was great and overall part of B was great as well. I enjoyed The Jealous father as well. However, I am have picked my topic about my writing for this week.
