Reading Notes: Legend of the Corn (A)

Wow, this was a fun story to read. I think I would like to keep the concept of con in my story, but also add in how corn can be used for cereal. There will be a family with a corn farm, and how they struggle to survive. I think this story will allow me to write a more serious plot, which I don’t think I have done just yet. I’m looking forward to writing about cereal, because who doesn’t love cereal?

I also would like to keep the buffalo in my story! It would connect my story to the original, and I think it would be a nice element to add. It would be a buffalo that the family in my story owns with the farm. I think I would like to have the buffalo talk, as well. Some of my favorite things about this story was how a plant can give so much. I think this is something we take for granted sometimes. I feel we tend to overlook natural products, and how important it is to save these natural food because in the future they may become scarce due to global warming and business industries. I’m looking forward to writing about this topic.
