    I think turtles idea was a lot more clever than spiders. Ithought that because turtle took the same ideas from spider and tricked spider his way. I think spiders is the funniest because he ses get yore feet claned really quick.

    They can be nice by just sharing the food and they can just say that they were slower then that person so you do not have to lie.

  3. 1. I think the second one was the most clever because the turtle used his family to win the competition. I think the first one was the funniest because the spider tries to weigh himself down in the water to eat with turtle. 2. I think in the second one turtle could have admitted he was slower than the rabbit. I think in the first one the spider could have just given the turtle some food because I would give a starving person some food whether I knew them or not. 3. I think the first one had a bad reason because the spider wasn't nice to the turtle and the turtle wasn't nice to the spider. I think the second one also had a bad reason because he cheated in the competition and cheating is wrong.

    I think the rabbit could have not won without the trick so he could just tried his best and try relly hard to win but that is probaly nit going to happen.

    I think that the turtle had a good reson to play the trick so the rabbit could stop being boastfulniess but the bad reson is that he should not do that because it could hurt his fellings.

  17. 1.I think the story the Hugry Spider is the cleverest because it is kind of like a pay back because spider dident get to eat and turtle dident eather. The most funnest tale was Aunt Fox and The Fried Fish because it kind of makes no sence witch makes it funny.
    4. My favorite trickster tale is The Hungry Spider because it kind of repeats and its funny.

    The turtle in the hungry spider played a trick on spider at the end.
    On rabbit races turtle the turtle wins because turtle played a trick on rabbit.I think the hungry spider was the funnyest story out of the hungry spider the rabbit races turtle and and aunt foxes fried fish.

  29. 4. It was smart of Turtle to invite spider in after he tricked him beacause Spider is going to try to do the same thing but that's Turtle's plan.
