Bibliography
These two microfictions come from one of my stories that I recently rewrote, based on The Woodpecker, Turtle, and Deer by Ellen C. Babbitt. My story, called, The Chicken, Cow, and Spider, takes a lot of elements from the plot of the first one and extends it. In the original story, each animal is trying to help the other animal escape danger. In these microfictions, I retold that story using quick sentences to describe each animal's feelings. In doing so, it helps add a comedic effect due to the briefness of their statements and the severity of the situation. Link to my retold story.

I believe the best part about my major is that it can allow me to help others once I graduate,...

The King of Virhen was a noble monkey named Jakook.                          One day, Jakook decided he would offer a test of strength for monkeys from all over the world to come try, in order to find a suitor for his monkey daughter, Sina. In front of the kingdom gates laid an enormous rock. This rock had been there for thousands of years, and it had never moved. Jakook declared that any monkey that could lift the rock could have Sina’s hand in marriage.             Monkeys from all over the lands came, including big powerful apes. However, none could move this rock. Then one mor...
