I am still busy so I am doing another overarching summary of the stories! Each of the tales again seems to focus on a moral or main point. There are also a lot of talking creatures in these stories.The second story in the reading even has a majestic lion that gives advice! There is a lot of enchanted food used in the stories to further the plot as well. In my favorite story of this half of the reading, the Twelve Dancing Princesses, a sleeping pill is used in the wine given to each man every night. This allows the girls to escape and go dance with their princes in the underground castle. However a soldier who has been wounded is told how to avoid their tricks and is able to tell the king all about his daughters dancing escapades. He then marries the eldest of the twelve daughters. I really enjoyed reading these stories this week and can't wait to read more!
