Before reading these Turkish stories, I had never heard any
like them! They were very creative, and new to me with their wizards and fairies. These stories were from Ignacz Kunos's Forty-Four Turkish Fairy Tales.
I really enjoyed the story about the little boy not knowing what fear was, but
then a simple task showed him the fear he had been searching. I think this
would be a fun story to use for my storytelling this week. I could modernize
the fears others kept trying to test him with. It could be a student who was
very confidant in their skills. People could keep telling him to take classes
and do things that would surely scare him, but never did. In the end he may be
scared to go talk to a pretty girl at a party. I would like to keep the part
about his mother too. I enjoyed her position in the story. Instead of a mother
sending her child to find fear, the mother could send her child to college. It
would end with him and his mother being reunited at the end of his first
semester. He would tell her all about his experiences, and that he finally
found fear, but also the love of his life.
