After selecting the stories I want to read for this semester, I am for excited than ever. I think the units I am most excited for are the British and European units. I am such a fan of British literature so these stories, especially the classic fairytales like Alice in Wonderland. I am intrigued to read where these classic fairytales came from and what parts Disney left out haha. I also am excited for the first unit, Biblical stories. My faith is very important to me, so getting to read stories from the Bible is super interesting to me. I love the story of Ruth so I hope to read about her!


I chose this image of the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland because I am most excited to read this story. I also loved the illustration of rabbit holding his pocket watch in a plaid trench coat. It reminded me of reading this story when I was a little girl!

After five short years, we packed up again and moved to The Woodlands, Texas! The Woodlands is a suburb of Houston! We lived there for fourteen years and that's where I completed all my schooling! Fast forward to present day, you can find my family settled in Dal...

(A demon throwing Rostam into the sea) Tortoise Bowl-On-The-Back and the Fox There once was a tortoise sowing seed when a fox stopped by saying “may Gog give you strength.” Soon the seed was ready for reaping and the fox came by to say the same thing as before. He came again at harvest time, but this time he came for his share. The two began to fight, leading to a proposed race. The tortoise had his brother hide in the threshing floor since he knew he couldn’t beat the fox. When the fox got to the barn, he realized he lost. He had been tricked. The greedy are put to shame.  The Story of the Wolf-Bride Once there was a father who had a son and one day an akhund prophesied his son would be torn apart by wolves. The father built an underground chamber for his son to live. As he grew older, it was time for him to marry so the son married the father’s brother’s daughter. In the chamber, the girl turned into a wolf and tore him to pieces. When daylight came, the woman found the dead brid...
