Storybook Favorites

 The first story that I like the most is Welcome to Wonderland. I really liked the approach they took with this story. Alice in Wonderland is an odd and crazy story with a lot fo funky things in it. I believe that this approach to it shows all the things that Alice sees in the movies and makes sense of it. I know it is a children's movie but I believe that taking it in the stand point as having a mental illness is a very interesting way to look about it. Multiple Personality Disorder is already something that interests me a lot so I believe that is why I really liked reading more about this story and this persons interpretation of what it means. I think they were really creative in writing about this.

The next post that I like the most was the story of Aladdin. I love the original Disney story so I thought I would love to see how this person put their own twist to the story and I was right. I like how they switched the roles in that Aladdin is now the rich one who is in line for the thrown and the princess is poor. I think this shows a completely different side to the story that will be interesting to see what happens. I also thought it was interesting how they made the magician the bad guy I the story because in the original story the magician is my personal favorite character.

The last story I picked was called Jake's storybook. This story is a spin off from Peter Pan. I really liked this one because it takes a different approach than the other ones I read about. The person who wrote this took the approach of coming from the audience which I thought was super interesting because most of the others changed the story from the original but this one came at it from a different standpoint which I thought was very interesting.

 Hello! My name is Sophie Martin. I am from Orange County, California. I was born and raised there so I know the area very well. Although my family has moved a few times we have generally live in the same part of Orange County. I am very close to my family. I have two older sisters who are amazing. My middle sister does behavioral therapy with children who are on the spectrum and she loves it very much. My oldest sister is an amazing chef and now is working to get her masters in teaching. She also just got married this past summer. She is the first out of all of us to get married so it was very special. I also gained my first brother from this so it was an amazing experience altogether.  My major is public relations with a minor in communication. I absolutely love learning more in this topic. I always knew I wanted to do something social but taking classes in public relations definitely makes me like it even more. I know this major is broad so there are many different paths I can take

 Native American Marriage Tales Bibliography: Native American Marriage Tales by Stith Thompson  marriage-dog-husband.html There was a women who owned a cat. This cat was her best friend they were together all day. During the night the cat would turn into a human and come into her bed to keep her company. One day the girl woke up and realized she was pregnant. The family knew it was from the cat and they were ashamed at the situation. So they killed the cat and left the girl to fend for herself.
