Reading Notes: The Crimson Fairy Book, Part B

Schippeitaro

This story can be written from two perspectives; one could be about the main character and how he tries to prove himself. It could be about his struggle in the forest and how he rescues the girl. Another alternative is from the girl's perspective; I can go in depth with her feelings of fear and hopelessness when she discovers that she will be eaten.

The Crab and the Monkey

This story inspires other stories of revenge, so if I can come up with someone betraying or deceiving another person, I could write about how the other character gets back at them.

How the Wicked Tanuki was Punished

Stories like these always make me wonder why the parents bring harm to each other or their children. It would be good to expand on the son's feelings and get more into his perspective since there is not much known about him aside from his actions.
