The Iguana and The Turtle:
- I like how at the end it tells the moral of the story because sometimes I do not get what the writers are trying to get at
- I hadn't read a story with an iguana in it before, I wonder if those are more popular in the Philippines
- Love short stories
- I like this story, they have a little crab town with leaders and what not
- Their old friend Hu-man, I wonder if that was meant to be a human
- At least the king understood good reasons
- Interesting that is why mosquitos hum...
- At first I thought the word crow was the word cow and I thought it was weird that the cow could fly, and then I thought well with these stories it wouldnt surprise me
- I like the moral of this story
- Being greedy usually does not get you anything, and you end up losing what you do have
The Humming Bird and The Carabao:
- Everyone always wants to be the biggest and best at everything
- How would Carabao be able to add that much water to the river, even though I get the writers point of the tide rising
- Of course the bird knew the tide was going to go down, theres always someone smart in stories
- At least Carabao knew how to take defeat even if it wasn't real
The Ant:
- I guess this stories theory could make sense
- Im going to guess not though
Why The Sun Shines more Brightly than The Moon:
- Interesting story, jealousy is never a good trait
- Funny her diamond wasn't as good as her sisters, thats what she gets
- Other than I think the moon is prettier then the sun, at least you can look at the moon
The Hawk and The Coling:
- What is a coling?
- Ahh its a little bird
- I thought the coling died from the sun?
- But then he proved he went the highest up, I don't get it
- I remember reading a story similar to this one
Why The Cows Skin is Loose:
- Weird way to spell plow, plough
- Weird that they would exchange skin in the first place
- These stories just keep getting weirder
The Lost Necklace:
- I always wonder how in these stories how these animals do things like human beings
- The always have a king to go to and tell on the other person, I guess kind of like the police
- Kinda a funny story I think, I would have never thought of it
The Story of our Fingers:
- If the fingers were all in the same position it would look weird
- Makes me laugh cause it talks about fingers talking to each other
Why Snails Climb up Grass:
- How did a fish live with a wasp, none of this ever makes sense
- The strongest doesn't have to be the head of the household
- I just picture a little snail looking over all the other grass, I bet they feel as if they are on top of the world. Well their world at least
Snail

Cuttlefish and Squids:
- The fishes had a convention
- Finally they used a normal term for power, officers
- Very formal story
- They show up late to the show and expect something in return, I think not
Why the Ocean is Salty:
- Ive always wondered why there was salt in the ocean
- I liked all these stories because they were short for one but another thing is I could understand them even if they had weird stuff goin on within them
Hello Baylee. I’m really glad I came across your reading diaries. I think I have been focusing more on the actual summary of the stories I have read instead of focusing on what it actually made me think and feel. I thought your thoughts on the Greedy Cow were pretty funny. I would have though crow would be cow too, especially with the title.
