Extra Credit Reading Notes, The Turtle who Couldn't Stop Talking

  Bibliography: Ellen C Babbitt, The Turtle who Couldn't Stop Talking
-A turtle sat at a pond and 2 wild geese approach looking for food.
-The next day, they came back and soon became very great friends.
-The geese tell the turtle they have a very nice home far away and ask if he wants to come but the turtle has no wings.
-The geese tell the turtle they will take him if he can keep his mouth shut.
-The next day, the geese come with a stick and have the turtle bite the middle as they fly to their home.
-Village children saw the crazy events happening above them.
-The turtle spoke out and then fell from the sky and dropped dead right in front of these children.
-As the two Geese flew on, they heard the people say, when they came to see the poor Turtle, "That fellow could not keep his mouth shut. He had to talk, and so lost his life."

Logan's Introduction

 Hello fellow classmates, My name is Logan Biggs and I was born in Dallas, Texas on February 3rd, 1998. I have lived in Frisco, Texas since I was in 8th grade, but has always lived in the great state of Texas. I grew up playing soccer since I was 10 and I actually attended Midwestern State University my freshman year on a soccer scholarship. I got hurt, but, short story, ended up here at The University of Oklahoma and my time here has been great. This is my 3rd year here and I am majoring in Finance. Money and math has always been a passion of mine since I can remember. Something cool about my major is that, sometimes, depending what you do, you get to be a strategist for other companies and take care of the financial decisions they choose to make. The best class I took last semester was Business Finance. In my opinion, this was my favorite class because this is what I am majoring in and I really enjoy doing financial problems. My favorite type of movies are comedy and action movies. M

The King forced men to go out to the lake to catch this, out of ordinary, species. When the men brought the Turtle back, the King wanted these men to kill it because only fish were supposed to be in the water. As they went around the room and talked about killing the animal, the Turtle pokes it's head out and says, "what have I done to you humans for you guys to want to do something to hurt me and hurt my life? The lake is my safe spot and I would never do anything to hurt you guys,
