Nights with Uncle Remus
Read tales 1 though 8 in Nights with Uncle Remus.
I'm most interested in what you have to say about stories 5 through 8, since I say less about them during the podcast. But you are welcome to chose your quote from any of those stories.
As with all assigned texts, remember to blog a brief quotation, post a link from the course website to your blog, and post 2-4 comments. Your blog portfolio assignment will also give you the opportunity to show evidence that you can also link from your entry to the course website, to your peers, and to relevant material you find online. The bare minimum, however, asks simply for a brief quotation and a statement of what you would talk about if called on during class.

Tricky Rabbit...
A lesson in 19th century Ebonics? This dialect was interesting...

Clever Turnip

The ignorance of adults in older folk tales is astounding.

Response to Alexi's blog (comments on blogs still won't post for me, it keeps telling me it is an "invalid request")
I love this. My favorite is the quote, "Is you been sleepin' longer old man Know-All?" I can just hear one of my grandparents saying this to me when I'm trying to be a smart-ass :)
