Extra Reading Diary: Jamaica Anansi Stories

Jamaica Anansi Stories



This was very interesting to read. The language was a little difficult to follow, but overall was a pretty cool story of a Tiger and his mango tree!Basically the thing I got out of the story was that the tiger was tied to his tree and needed help getting untied... I think.

So in this story, four friends change their name and if their mother's call them by their old name they must eat their mothers. That's what I got out of the first chapter. I don't really understand the point of this story either. I should have probably picked a different unit to read, but I must say it is interesting to read other culture's stories. It's like trying to solve a puzzle!
