Hans Christen Anderson stories or European stories?

Yeah I'm writing these blogs Back to Back. lol No seriously I was a little behind with writing to my favorite readers. Hello, Hello, Hello!!!!! back again. oh it feel so good to just type about things that you and others can relate too. Okay so I'm going to discuss the stories of Han-Christens Anderson in comparison to how differently they are from European stories. first I'm going to educate you guys about Han christens Anderson stories in which I believe they are mostly about objectifying a women or having her make a decision that makes her seems unwise. and I say this because the story the little mermaid was about a young girl giving up her life as a mermaid to be human and with a man she barely knows. Another example is in Tiger's Bride where her father bets on his daughter loses her to the beast and she has to do what he says because he own's her now. Most stories I feel are basically about owner ship and being with someone that you don't actually want to be with but that's my perception from it. Although, European stories are different for example, these stories have a majority of children being the hero. for example jack and the beanstalk jack sold the livestock for magic beans his mom and brother was so disappointed in Jack because he was suppose to sell it for money. But instead he took the beans that lead them to fortune. European stories often end in a happy ending with someone being saved. Observing the difference in the two I have come up with some questions one being which stories do you like better Anderson or European stories? and why? please leave a comment below and we can go into deeper discussion about the two.

Beauty and the Beast

Heyyy Everyone!!! Question time! so, have you ever dreamed of being an animal? or If you could be any animal what would it be?? {Drop Comment} I would love to know, btw I would want to be a black panther. ouuuuu a panther lol your probably thinking why panther? well because they are very beautiful and black, which is my favorite color. Any who could you imagine transforming into a beast? Hmmph not me said the goose. Since where on the topic the tale The Frog Princess which has multiple versions to it but where going focus on the one about the beauty and the beast. But there's a twist because the female is the beast and the male is the beauty. in which three children make a bow and shoot the arrow at random to find a wife. one of the children arrows *drum roll please* landed on a frog. in which the child neglected but ended up liking and transformed into a stunning, intelligent, well skilled princess. in comparison to the swan maiden the transformation was the same ending with marri

Never underestimate a girl

https://youtu.be/Z3GUs97s0V4   Helloooooo my Ary Readersss what you think of that name ? Youuu like that name ??  Yeah me either needs work (a lot 😂) Anyway click the link and enjoy this cartoon called Johnny Bravo. In this episode they had a Little red riding hood theme which made me view the whole story differently. Opened my eyes and made me realize that the story doesn’t have to be the same even if it’s old. Many people remake old versions of folk and fairy tales and sometimes they come out better. Personally I believe that this episode was cool and very educational because the little girl that played little red riding hood wasn’t as gulliable as the others she was smart about making decisions and didn’t  believe just anything but her own instincts. For example, the part where Johnny gets to the forest before Hood and changes the signs to get to granny’s house. So, Hood sees the signs that lead to her grandmothers house wasn’t correct from the last time she visited her grandmother

Observation is Key 🔑

Good morning amigas and amigos how are y'all doing on this beautiful morning? I know y'all probably like how she go from English to Spanish to English. well wanna know why?? because im bilingual lol joking... I wish I was. But anyway to get down to business ladies and gents today I recently viewed my classmates blog which was very informational and thorough. Her name is Payton and I would like to recommend that you all go and read her blog. My favorite blog she wrote was blog number 6 where she compared Cinderella to Pretty Woman and talked about "rags to riches". In which they are in some ways similar. Also, like how she talked about the reality of a real happy ending or successful life. Another blog that caught my attention was blog number 5 in which she talked about snow white in comparison to a song called sonne in which it betrayed the story of snow white but in a different perspective. The reason this blog caught my attention was because I completely agree with
