Reading different Storybooks was definitely interesting! I decided to read through the Indian Epics Storybooks. From the multiple books to choose from, there were three that were my favorite.
1. Kurma and Karma
By reading the title, I knew what this storybook was about. It was such an interesting take on this topic, and I could not stop reading the introduction. I also couldn't stop laughing because of the theme that this student took on with this topic. I never would have thought of mixing the Finding Nemo turtles with Karma. I loved the website layout, and the imagery. It really tied together with the theme that the student was trying to present, and I hope to have this type of idea in my project. A unifying theme definitely made this project so entertaining!
Seeing the words "Lord Rama" and "Football Player" definitely caught my eye when looking through the list. From the moment I clicked on the link, I wanted to know everything about this student's project. I chuckled at the way the student was able to integrate Joe Castiglione and Lord Rama in the introduction. I couldn't stop reading this introduction! I liked the images that were used and how simple the project was. This made it super accessible, and I hope to keep my project simple yet fun.
I decided to just randomly click on some stories, and I am so glad I came across this one. From the moment I saw the image in this introduction, I knew I would enjoy reading about this storybook. It was a hilarious and positive twist on some of the greatest love stories in Indian Epics. I am familiar with these terms, and the title did a great job of hinting at what this project would be about. The storybook website looked very professional, and well put together. I hope to implement this type of professionalism in my project as well.
Your comments about the stories you have enjoyed in this class was interesting to read. I think it is interesting to hear other people speak about their views and why they make the particular decisions they do because it shows their character. I like that you were honest and said you just started clicking on some stories and that's how you truly found a story you ended up liking. Some stories you see the title and it sounds interesting and some stories may be good even if the title is not.
