Paul Bunyan




Dear Fellow Friends,
I am reading Paul Bunyan By: Mary Pope Osborne. This Tall Tale is about a big baby named Paul Bunyan who weighed more than 100 pounds when he was only 2 weeks old!!! Paul Bunyan had a big curly black beard, which his mother had to comb it with a pine tree! when the baby was 9 months old he started crawling and since he weighed over 500 pounds, he caused an earthquake that shook the whole town! When the neighbors complained, the baby's parents tried putting him in a giant floating cradle off the coast of Maine. But soon a delegation of citizens went to the baby's parents and said, " We`re sorry , folks, but you have to take your son someplace else. Every time he rolls over in his cradle , huge waves drown all the villages along the coast". So then his parents took Paul Bunyan to a cave in Maine Woods far away from civilization and said good- bye! Read More of my blogs to find out what happened to the big baby!


MY CROP QV'S
1. How can a baby that is 9 months old be 500 pounds?????
2. I feel Really sad that Paul Bunyan's mom and dad said goodbye and left!!!!
3. In my opinion , I think that babies don't have beards when they are little!!!!
4. My prediction would be that Paul Bunyan would be like a giant when he grows up!!!
5. I can visualize the big baby who was 100 ponds when he was only 2 weeks old!!!
