The 2006 Five-Minute Folktale Challenge
Two folk tales shown on the video below are by Martha Hamilton and Mitch Weiss:
The Stolen Smell, and A Tale of Two Frogs. These two tales illustrate lessons students can develop to engage an audience's attention while encouraging discussion on the outcome of positive attitudes.
