Reading notes Week 11 Part A

This week the Reading was interesting to read mostly because I grew up in the Southwest and so the readings that came from the Pima tribe in Arizona were interesting to read simply because I have heard similar stories but from different tribes. The story that stood out to me most this week was The Creation of the World. This stood out the most to me because the way it started off really got me. It was different than the other stories because the other stories are super blunt and to the point as where this one was a little more detailed. There was more of a plot to it. It wasn't choppy like the other ones. there wasn't as much repetition either. The rest of the stories would use the same word a couple times over and over again. It was more annoying than anything but I get why it was used like that. The message still got across just in a faster way.
