What Kinds of Stories do we tell? Why do we tell them? by

We tell stories for a very important reason. The first thought is how we entertain people. For example, a tall tale has a little bit of humor to make us laugh. Just like Davy Crockett, he squeezed Sally Sugartree and her eyes popped out because the hug was very strong. That's a bit humorous.

Second of all, there is another reason why we tell stories. The reason why is so we can learn about having fun, or just trying to be a good reader. For example, Mighty Kate was humorous, had long writing, and it showed us to have fun.

We tell stories to entertain, educate, and connect with others. Stories can transport us to different worlds. Also, stories can teach us lessons. For example, in the story, "How Grandmother Spider Stole the Sun," teach us about courage, wisdom, and friendship.

• This tale could be told many times because it reached the requirements of a folk tale. Folk tales are told many times like tall tales but with less humor. It could've been told many time because it contains a heroic act, heroes, and medieval style to it.

•Since this is a folktale, there is a lesson in this story. When Prince Alfonso met Blancaflor, he had to learn to trust her decision. Blancaflor told him to bring Pensamiento, an old and thin horse but had a strong mind, instead of Viento, a young and strong horse. Alfonso didn't think that Pensamiento would fit both of them, so he chose Viento. After that, Blancaflor complained that he chose Viento instead while she sacrificed her comb, pin, and shawl to make obstacles. That is how Alfonso learned to trust her from then on.
