Storybook 1: To Have a Tiger By the Tale

This story captivated my attention from the beginning simply due to the fact it mentions a tiger. I love animals so this initially drew me into the story, and the introduction upheld my interest. The introduction began with information about tigers in the wild and their relationship with people throughout time. Although interesting, what really hooked my attention was the author's desire to disprove the "villainous" image of the tiger and showing that the role of the villain in this relationship lies more with the humans.

Storybook 2: The Stolen Child's Perspective

Just from reading the title, I had a good idea of what this story would be about. This sounded like it could be a mystery, with an interesting perspective so I immediately was drawn to it. After reading the introduction, I liked reading about the resemblances to other well-known stories. I thought the design of the blog was fitting in such it kept a dull, simple design to not take away from the seriousness of the plot. The introduction was fairly ambiguous, which did a good job persuading me to dive into the story to understand the plot.

Storybook 3: The Dragon Under the Yew

There's not much that compares to a good story about dragons. Just from seeing the word 'Dragon' in the title, I was drawn to explore the story. Immediately after clicking the link, I was taken to the blog with a prominent tree displayed at the top of the page. The enhanced my interest and motivated me to read through the entire introduction. The introduction was formatted as if it were straight from the story, really engaging me to read until the end. I was left wanting to know more about the battle between the knight and the dragon, so it is fair to say that the introduction did a very good job.

Introduction

All About Me Hey! My name is Katie and I am currently a senior at the University of Oklahoma. When people say time flies by in college, they aren't kidding! I feel like it was just yesterday that I moved into the dorms freshman year, and now within a couple of months I will be moving on to something new. I am currently studying biopsychology as a pre-medical student. I really enjoy sciences so I have enjoyed almost all of my classes I have takes throughout undergraduate so far. I spent the summer studying for the MCAT, and am currently in the process of applying to medical school! This semester I am excited for my classes, but anxious about how they will turn out with all of them online. However, it is important to be flexible, especially in a pandemic, so I am hoping to make the most of it! Besides academics, I love playing volleyball and doing other activities with my friends. My junior year I was the president of the OU Women's Club Volleyball team, and enjoyed traveling to
