More stories from different cultures

Here is Amari's piece of work, another story from a different culture!
Anansi and the water moccasin
On a fine looking day, Anansi was chilling in his cosy bed, in his lovely house. He was sipping his fresh, cool, pineapple soda whilst watching the warm, comfortable sun. Moments later, he decided to think about how plain his house was. He wanted it to be the best house in the world.
He wanted to steal the water moccasins scales, for decorations for his house. He was planning to trick the water moccasin into eating a lot of food, until he was so tired, he’d have to spend the night. When Anansi could steal his scales and decorate his plain house.
Anansi barked “water moccasin come to my house for dinner later”. The water moccasin replied “yes I would love to come to your house for dinner.” Hours later they went inside and Anansi started to feed and feed and feed the water moccasin until he soon fell asleep and Anansi started his mission and soon accomplished it.
The next morning, the water moccasin woke up and didn’t notice that his scales were long gone. Every time he slithered past someone they laughed. One person walked by and said “why don’t you check in the mirror.” So that’s what he did. All of a sudden Anansi heard a gigantic scream. Anansi dropped the scales and ran away as far as he could go.
The same day the water moccasin was shouting in anger searching for his scales. He unhappily said “I knew I shouldn’t have trusted Anansi!” On a high note, the water moccasin found his scales and enjoyed the rest of the warm, comfortable sunny day.

Stories from different cultures

In our class we have been looking at stories from different cultures. This is Tawana's work! 

How the tortoise got his rough shell
It was a bright summer’s day when tortoise, who had the smoothest shell in the land, was feeling very hungry. Looking up, the tortoise saw a flock of birds flying high in the sky. The tortoise, who was still very hungry, asked where they were going. The flock of birds replied saying “we are flying to where we get our food.”
Thinking about what the birds had said, the tortoise set to work on making himself wings. After a lot of time and effort the tortoise had his very own pair of wings. The next time the tortoise saw the birds flying high in the sky he joined them too. When he reached the end of the rainbow, or also know as food land, the tortoise ate as much as he could.
After hours and hours of non-stop eating the tortoise was finally full. Despite the tortoise being full he tried to fly. All the food that he had eaten had made him so heavy that he now couldn’t fly. So he decided to jump. As he made his jump, he lost his balance and unfortunately fell right on his shell.
When he rolled over realised that his shell had cracked and crumbled into lots of tiny pieces. His shell was now as crumbled as a dry biscuit that had been stepped on. He asked the wise monkeys to help him fix his shell. They did their best but his shell was now uneven. And that’s how the tortoise got his rough shell.
