    I am most excited for Week 4, 10, and 12. When I was first looking through the book, the Cupid and Psyche unit caught my eye, as well as the Nursery Rhymes unit. I just recently found out that I'm part Cherokee, so I thought it would be neat to read the Myths of the Cherokee unit. After picking out the stories that grabbed my attention, my interests seem to revolve around fairy tales.
