Oh wise ones.... Today we read and enjoyed the autographed copy of Epposamundas that I got at ALA. I told the students that this was a traditional tale with many versions but could only come up with Hans in Luck as an example. I searched the archives under noodle tales and jack tales and didn't come up with anything. Similar searches on Google didn't help. I know there are other stories like Epposamundas out there. The only one I can think of is Hans in Luck. Can anybody else add some other titles that have a similar pattern--something is being carried home in an inappropriate fashion, the person is given instructions for how to carry that item and applies these instructions inappropriately to a different item with comic results. The Schwartz books, Carrot in your Ear and another title that I forget, are not really what I'm looking for--nor are Amelia Bedelia and The Stupids. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jean Townes, Media Specialist townesj@PEAK.ORG Clover Ridge Elementary School Phone: 541-967-4565 Greater Albany Public Schools 2953 Clover Ridge Rd, NE Albany, Or 97321 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=- All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
