The Fighting Moose

With Thanksgiving coming up next week, here in the United States, I think we can all agree that when we eat too much at the Thanksgiving feast, we get a little sleepy. That's what we see in today's story as we see the Flopsy Bunnies eating too much lettuce and the trouble that ensues after they get sleepy.

Country life versus city living, which do you prefer? Myself, I prefer the city life. I like being close to things and being able to take a short trip to the store if I need something, not a 15 minute drive if I need one thing at the store. In today's story, we read about what happens when the city folk visit the country and what happens when the country folk visit the city.

I'm sure you have heard of the old tale, “The Tortoise and the Hare.” Today, we look at a variation of that with the story titled, “Spotty the Turtle Wins a Race.” I guess if you wanted to rename the story, it would be “The Tortoise and the Hare and the Mink and the Fox.” That's too much so we will stick with “Spotty the Turtle Wins a Race.” I hope you are enjoying these stories as much as I am. I know that when my son requests a story from Thornton W. Burgess, I will not be disappointed as I read it.

Today is a sad and exciting day. It's sad because we finish a book that we've been reading stories out of for a whole year but it is exciting because we get to finish a book. If you're like me, finishing a book feels great but is also sad, especially if it is a book in a series and it is the last one. Oh well, on to the next book. What's it going to be? I don't know yet, I'll have to keep my eyes open and see what I can find.

Have you ever wondered where the autumn leaves get their colors? Well if you are like me, you probably know the scientific answer to that but in case you were wondering how the First Nations answered that question, then look no further than today's story.

The unofficial start to the fall season is Labor Day here in the United States. The official first day of fall this year was on September 23, 2019. For me, fall is one of the greatest seasons. To tell the truth, I like them all. In fall, you have a lot of hunting seasons open up, playoff baseball, football, cider, etc. I could go on forever, but there are a lot of things. In today's story, we read about Autumn and how Autumn starts off not so nice but then because beautiful as we see the colors.

To tell you the truth, I have never head of Michaelmas Day. I have heard of the angel Michael from The Bible though which is where this day receives it's name. Anyway, maybe you have heard of it maybe you haven't, but if you are like me, it's always fun and interesting to learn about new things.

So how did I decide on this story? Well, the other night, my wife got home from work and said that she wanted to watch a chick flic. The movie she chose, was the 2005 film “Pride and Prejudice”. I will admit, I have never read the book and I'm pretty sure that I have never watched that movie all the way through from start to finish so I guess I will just have to settle for the abridged version.

Knights appear in all sorts of things. I've read books with knights, watched movies with knights, even played with some toys that are knights. I don't know what came first in the realm of knights, King Arthur or the classic image of a knight wearing a full suit of armor. Either way, the image of a knight is still with us to this day, so what better way to get in touch with our knightly sides but by reading two stories of King Arthur.
