There wasn't necessarily a main concept. Instead, it was a collection of tradition literature stories, which include a range of themes and morals. What I really liked about this chapter book was that it kept me engaged. For example, reading Cinderella, I thought I knew what was going to happen, but this traditional version included two separate balls! What I did not like about this book was the vocabulary. It definitely made it feel true to narratives, but it was also very hard to understand at times. I felt that I had to reread sections a few times, which would be an issue if this were to be used in the classroom. For example, the Princess Mayblossom story uses words such as "Alas." Some of the other stories would be able to be used, but I don't think I would use all stories in my classroom because of some of the vocabulary and syntax. This book contains several classics that many of us know as children. One story is titled “The dragon and his grandmother”. Three soldiers flee from a king who is harsh and does not pay them well. After fleeing, they become trapped in a corn field nearing death until a dragon finds them. The dragon saves them and gives them all the wealth that they want, but in return, after seven years they will become his property unless they can guess his riddles. One of the men befriends the dragons’ grandmother and she helps him solve the riddles. In the end, the men are set free from the dragons’ power and live as wealthy and free men. I have never heard this story and really enjoyed it. It was a short and simple story but used several things that caught my attention. The three men faced many problems and yet one of them was always confident that things were going to be all right. This impressed me in showing that no matter what life throws at you, that one must remain positive and believe that things will work out in the end. In the classroom, I would read a few of the stories from this book and asked the students which one was their favorite. I would then ask the students to write a short summary of the story and why that one was their favorite. I think that by allowing the students to choose which one was their favorite, this would be favorable in their eyes and would help them to recall the story better. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
