Reading Notes A; The Bad Wife

Russian Fairy Tales by W. R. S. Ralston (1887)

The bad wife is a story about a woman who treats her husband bad.

The woman would betray anything the husband asked her to do and would do the total opposite

The man found an endless pit under a bush of berries

He would trick his wife into falling into the pit 

He then threw a rope into the pit and he pulled out a demon

The demon was so scared of the bad wife he wanted to be out on earth

The demon cut a deal with the peasant that he would torment people and the peasant would save him.

They did this to many people until they did it to the boyars daughter

The peasant then tricked the demon into thinking the bad wife was back and the demon went back into the hole.

An introduction to me... Zack Ziegenhorn

Hello Everybody! My name is Zack Ziegenhorn, but most everyone I know calls me Zig for short. Its much easier to remember than Zack and MUCH easier to spell than Ziegenhorn. (lol) I am from Tulsa, OK and I am a senior Communication major. I went to Tulsa Union High School where I played baseball. I continued my baseball career for one year in college at Seminole State College but had to cut my baseball career short due to nagging injuries 😡.

I have been a huge OU fan my entire life and was so excited to get the opportunity to attend this University.                      Obviously I am a huge sports fan and love football, baseball, basketball, and golf. My favorite teams are OU, the St. Louis Cardinals, and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Thunder up!! I enjoy going to the lake over the summer and getting on the boat and just having a great time with friends and ...

Reading Notes, English tales: Three Little Pigs

The three little pigs is one of the most famous tales I want to keep the beginning of the story the same " ill huff and ill puff and ill blow your house down" After the wolf gets to the third house I can change the story around the wolf gets tricked every time and I could change that around to where the wolf was doing so on purpose The wolf talks about different ways to get the last pig out. I could change the way he tries to get him out of the house. Maybe even spy on the pig to devise a plan.  I don't want to take away from the original story but I feel like I could have some better ideas to make it more interesting.  Joseph Jacobs, Three Little Pigs; Link to reading The Wolf
