Notes: 

Many of the stories told by Uncle Remus include some wisdom. This wisdom is sort of like the Aesop Fable snippets. They go along with the story, and refer mostly to the fools who get tricked. The stories also remind me of a grown-up Winnie the Pooh. All the animals interact: they are friends in some stories, and they are trying to eat each other in other stories. 

In this section, I actually like the Mr. Terrapin Shows His Strength. Brer Terrapin (turtle). If I was to write a story about this section, I would base it off of this story and then add a wisdom snippet to it.
