Sweet and Sour
I love this picture. It reminds me of watching Winne the Pooh, when I was younger. This is a sweet house where happy people live. I find it strange that I can associate this picture of calm sweetness with a childhood that also encompassed stories like Red Ridinghood. I remember the gory end of Red Ridinghood, where the huntsman cuts Red and Granny out of the wolf's stomach, with the same amount of love and nastalsia as I do with sweet stories like Whinne the Pooh. I have thought about writing childrens stories, but have struggled with many of the technicalities. For instance, how do I include morals? Now, I wonder if that is even a nessesity. I guess we'll see if this class helps my understanding of childrens literature, or simply adds even more complexity to my already confused brain.
