Reading Notes Henny-Penny- Part B

English Fairy Tales by Joseph Jacobs with illustrations by John D. Batten (1890).

This story was super funny to me especially after I looked up pictures to use fro my blog. A lot of the images that popped up were for Henny Penny fryers. This all makes sense because this whole story focused on a group of animals mostly birds, such as a duck trying to reach the King to alert him the sky is falling. Though along the way the group runs into a wolf who says they are going the wrong way. He takes them in the opposite direction and leads them one by one into a dark cave killing each of them except for Henny Penny. She wises up and turns and runs away. This story has a significant message that all should keep in mind. Though we should be able to trust everyone we come into contact with we sadly cannot. Keep in mind who you are speaking with and ensure you can trust them before risking anything.

Growing up in California I was exposed to many outdoor activities such as snowboarding, paddle boarding, kayaking, and hiking at a young age. These activities have stuck with me and during my time spent at home due to the Coronavirus I was able to get

  Clay There was once two boys who came across a ball of clay that had a message attached to it. In the message it stated whoever came across it had the opportunity to create a new world. Though the instructions stated the new world must be created by two people.The two boys filled with excitement immediately started coming up with ideas of how they wanted to shape this new world.  One of the boys was named Thomas, he was very outgoing and loved sports.
