Interesting Reading Units
Cupid and Psyche
I love magic, and it interested me to see the god Cupid as
one of the romantic leads in a love story, when he’s known as a creator of
many. And I can’t resist a good fairytale.
Turkish Fairy Tales
I think what I liked about this was that the stories were strange,
but in a new perspective sort of way. Who goes looking for Fear? But it shows
us important lessons about human nature.
Twenty-two Goblins
I think what compelled me to look at this unit was that it
shows the logic specific to a certain culture regarding societal values. Which
will the King pick to satisfy the Goblin? The tales say a lot about ancient
Indian culture.
Sun-Ku Wong
This reading unit interested me because of Sun-Ku Wong’s
connection to the Hindu god Hanuman, whose stories I grew up with. Plus, I’m
curious about Chinese mythology and culture.
Fairee Queen:
Britomart
I must admit that gender-bender characters do intrigue me
because of how they break the gender barrier, so this reading unit is perfect
to explore that. I also love comedy, especially when paired with fantasy.
