Reading Notes: Brothers Grimm (Hunt), Part B

Image Information: The moment where the soldier becomes Bearskin. Web Source: Mythology and Folklore UN-Textbook

When reading the story Bearskin, I could not help but be reminded of a modern-day soldier and what it is like for them when they return home from war. I could not help but be reminded of what it was like for them before they were given decent benefits. Soldiers would often come home from war with no money and have to resort to illegal acts such as gambling. I could tell a story of a soldier who returned home and experienced all of this. I would have to figure out how to bring the story full-circle.

Bibliography: Brothers Grimm (Hunt) by Jacob Grimm and Wilhelm Grimm, link to the reading online.
