Wisdom Tales Project
My classmates and I all did a project on a wisdom tale we liked. Wisdom Tales is a book with a lot of different tales that all have different morals. I did a comic about a tale called Old Dog and Coyote.
Old Dog and Coyote is a tale from Mexico. It is about an old watchdog, who has failed to do his job and has been sent out into the desert to find his own food. He met a coyote who offered to help him. The coyote would pace around the chicken coop and the dog would pretend to growl at him. The farmer was happy that the dog was doing his job. Each day, the coyote and the dog would do their trick.
I had so much fun drawing the comic and coloring in the elaborate coyote.
