Asian Folktale Week << Original prompt- Courtship. I’ll be going with Gift >> Frog Prince- A tale from Sri Lanka . I decided to change the story a bit in the middle and end. >> Original Story- His mother pounded rice for a living and one day he strung some of the rice on a date tree and became a handsome Prince. >> I changed the story to: when the frog accepted the challenge that was said impossible by everyone else,Gods were so pleased about his bravery therefore turned him to a handsome young Prince but under one condition, that he should stay true to his word always. . . Once he started the journey as a young Prince now, he visited 3 kings who gave him 3 magical gifts a piece of charcoal that will create a fire-fence a stone that becomes a mountain,and a thorn that creates a thorn fence. . . To be continued... . . . . Illustrators @marg_artitas, @moving_doodles, @kamala_nair, and I @duli_sen have decided to tell folktales from our homeland for #folktaleweek .
