      <title>The Little Red Mermaid (Picture book) by </title>
      <link>https://padlet.com/knc98/LRMResearch</link>
      <description>Maintained in Hans Christian Andersen&#39;s The Little Mermaid and Perrault’s Little Red Riding Hood are tropes and motifs both different, but have the potential to become adapted into what I think would create a unique modernized fairy tale, The Little Red Mermaid. </description>

         <title>What I learned from these sources &amp; What I still need to learn</title>
         <author>knc98</author>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br>From the sources I have gathered, I had found answers to my three focuses: format, production and context. To begin, Link 1, “Adaptation,” is one that I find to best allude to my understanding of how to adapt my two focused stories of Perrault’s <em>Little Red Riding Hood</em> and Hans Christian Andersen's <em>The Little Mermaid</em> into a picture book. From points such as the process of adaptation, the positive outcomes and the warning of losing the original story line during transposing, I am able to incorporate what I had learn through the process and common experiences met with the adaptation to how I format my picturebook. In the next two links attached: “A Word about Pictures” (Link 2)  and “The Art of the Picturebook” (Link 3); I had found these sources to best contribute to my approach on the production of my picturebook. Where the “A Word about Pictures” informs me of important factors in illustrations such as the size and locations of drawings and the symbolism that can be portrayed; in “The Art of the Picturebook,” this article has taught me about how the synergy between text and word can form something bigger than what the two can do separately. While from these sources I was able to enhance my understanding of how I can effectively format and produce my story, I still need to learn how to effectively format and produce this story in a way that appeals to the youth demographics in hopes that they don’t dismiss the story as just a child’s picturebook. <br><br></div><div>Given the freedom to select the last 7 sources, I used the opportunity to help me gather information as well as inspiration on what I think is the most crucial to my final project and that is the motifs involved. As my project aims to combine motifs from Perrault’s<em> Little Red Riding Hood </em>and Hans Christian Andersen's <em>The Little Mermaid</em>, I wanted to find inspiration for my for how I can incorporate the motifs of naivety, obedience, coming of age and safeguard sexuality found in  <em>Little Red Riding Hood</em>, and curiosity and the desire for a soul to live like humans found in <em>The Little Mermaid</em>. Through articles, advertisements, explanatory videos and adaptations (Link 4-8) of the fairytales I have was able to see the different ways that these motifs can be utilized. Additionally, from the free choice in sources, I had also wanted to learn about how I can effectively modernize my story to best set it in the time period of the 21st century. A specific source that I had found to contribute to this is an article provided by the Washington Post on catfishing (Link 9). The last source that I had found that I thought would inform my work is an example of an adaptation created by a student (Link 10). While this student had combined the story of <em>Little Red Riding Hood </em>and <em>The Three Little Pigs</em> I am able to see how they had balance the motifs and formed an original plot. While from these sources I was able to learn more as well as feel inspired, there are many aspects of the motifs in particular that I still need to learn and that is how to find the balance between motifs that can be interpreted as juvenile with the mature content of rape that I want to demonstrate through the way that my protagonist leads herself to the consequences of being strip from her sexual autonomy. </div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>
