  22. AT#23 I agree with you Davy Crockett is really good when he tries to "grin" the "racoon" out of a tree but the "racoon" ends up being a piece of cardboard.

  24. I also liked Sally Ann Thunder Ann Whirlwind Crockett, because most tall tales are about boys, but Sally Ann Thunder Ann Whirlwind Crockett is about a girl.So it is interesting.

    I know you worked really hard on your tall tale. I am so proud of you. I am not sure why technology sometimes doesn't work. But you did GREAT!
