READING AROUND THE WORLD Summer—2005
Federal Way, Washington
To all families and teachers of children who call the United States of America their home
Our team started working on this project in June 2005. We had several goals to accomplish: to gather oral stories from our multicultural communities, communities, to write the stories down, to translate them into English, and to align them with grade level expectations in Reading. The stories were to reflect the uniqueness of different different cultures and to become a learning and teaching tool for families. Working on this project presented a wonde rful, exciting opportunity for us to come together as a team, to to learn from each other, and to build build collegial relationships. It made us value each other o ther as professionals and, more so, as representatives of different cultural backgrounds. This is definitely a beginning of something new and valuable for all of us. We are planning on developing new stories and extending our project in the summer 2006. We welcome your suggestions and participation. Special thanks to: Helen Malagon, our State Bilingual Supervisor, who encouraged us and trusted us with this work; Jean Vaughan, Director of Eng lish Language Learners Program of the Federal Way School District, who supported us on a day-to-day basis; and community members who gen erously shared their special stories.

Chung Kayguri, the Green Frog A long long time ago in a small Korean village, there lived a little green frog called Chung Kayguri with his old widowed Mother. Chung Kayguri loved his mother, but was a troublemaker. He always did the opposite of what his old mother told him to do. When his mother told him to go east, he went west. When she told him to do this, he did that. Momma Kayguri said, “Kaygul. Kaygul. (Ribbit. Ribbit.) It is very warm and sunny today. Why don’t you go outside and play in the stream with your friends? Kaygul. Kaygul.” So Chung Kayguri, instead of going with his friends to the stream, went by himself to the hill. The next day, Momma Kayguri said to her son, “Stay close to home today. I heard there might be some snakes out there.” Instead of doing as his Momma asked, Chung Kayguri went to his friends. “Kaygul. Kaygul. Let’s go for an adventure and find some snakes.” This kind of behavior went on and on. It was very frustrating for Momma Kayguri. Eventually, she became ill. Even then, Chung Kayguri didn’t heed his mother. She would ask him to speak softly, and do you know what he would do? That’s right, he would yell loudly. Momma Kayguri’s health continued to decline. She became so ill that she knew she would not recover. Before she died, Momma Kayguri called her son to her bedside. “ When I die,” she pleaded, “bury me by the stream. Please don’t bury me in the hill.” In fact, she
wanted to be buried in the hill. Knowing her son well, though, she requested the opposite of her real wish. “Kaygul. Kaygul. Momma, please don’t die. Kaygul. Kaygul. ” But it was too late. Momma Kayguri passed away. Chung Kayguri was very sad and said to himself, “Kaygul. Kaygul. My mother got ill and died because I never listened to her. I will grant her last wish.” Chung Kayguri buried his mother by the stream, thinking he was finally doing the right thing. Every day he came to her grave to pay his respects. One summer day, a heavy rain called a monsoon arrived and continued for many days. With all the rain, the stream began to flood and rose up to Momma Kayguri’s grave. Chung Kayguri was worried that the rushing water would soon wash his mother away. He cried aloud in a mournful call, “Kaygul. Kaygul. Mother is going to wash away! Mother is going to wash away! Kaygul. Kaygul.” Ever since then, that is why green frogs cry whenever it rains. That is why people in Korea who do the opposite of what they are told are called Chung Kayguri.

The Fountain of Youth
Once upon a time, there lived an old man named Yong with his old wife, Oak. They were poor, but honest good people. One thing they wished, though, was to have children to bear their names. Early one morning, Yong went to the mountain to gather firewood. After working for a few hours, he rested under a chestnut tree. A beautiful little mountain bird came along, perched on a branch and started to sing. It was so enchanting that when it flitted away, he felt he had to follow the little bird. It flew from one tree to another, and he followed the bird as though he were spellbound. After some time, Yong found himself by a secluded, misty fountain. Unsure of where he was, he looked around to see where the bird had gone. It was nowhere to be seen. Overcome by thirst and tiredness, he dipped his hands in the fountain. The water was surprisingly cool. He took a little drink of the refreshing water and soon fell asleep. When Yong awoke a few hours later, the sun was already high in the sky. He took special note of how to find the fountain again, and then he hurried down the mountain. When he arrived at home, he opened the gate to find his wife, Oak waiting for him. “I’m sorry I’ve come home so late,” he said. “Excuse me, do I know you?” said his wife. Yong replied, "Do you know me? What are you talking about? It is me, your husband. Don’t you know me?”
“What?" Oak said. " My husband is an old man, not a handsome young man like you. But, wait...you do look like my husband when he was young.” When Yong heard this, he went to look at himself in the mirror. He couldn’t believe his eyes! In the mirror, there WAS a young man. He touched his face and there were no wrinkles. He felt his arms and they were as hard as rocks. He also remembered how light the firewood he carried felt in his wooden backpack and how easily he could climb down that steep mountain trail. Yong said, “It’s the water! The water in the fountain! That must be it!” “You are puzzling me. What are you talking about?” said Oak. He told his wife what had happened. She listened, half doubting what he was saying. He reminded her so much of how he looked as a young man that she couldn’t help but follow him when he said with an urgent voice, “You must come to the fountain with me.” Climbing the mountain and walking through thorny bushes made her thirsty, but this young man kept climbing up and up, waiting every now and then for his old wife to catch up. Finally they arrived at the misty fountain and right away she drank a little water. All of a sudden, she felt very strange and weak. Oak collapsed. Yong ran up to her, and a beautiful young woman opened her eyes. “You are as beautiful as you were when I married you thirty years ago.” said Yong. Rejoicing, they quickly climbed back down the mountain. Their neighbor, a selfish rich old man saw the happy rejuvenated young couple. Hearing from them what had happened, he demanded that they take him to the fountain immediately. Although they were exhausted, they reluctantly showed him the way to the fountain. The greedy
neighbor jumped into the water, bathed in it, and started to gulp it down. Yong and Oak just shook their heads and waited. Now, can you guess what happened? Yes, their old neighbor got younger all right, but he got so young that he became a baby again- he was helpless. Yong and Oak scooped up the flailing baby from the water, came down the mountain, and adopted him as their son. The little baby grew up to be a nice young man who respected and loved his parents very much. This adopted son, likewise, raised his own children to be modest, respectful and kind, and continued to be grateful to his parents for their upbringing not only of him, but also of his children.

Princess Pyong Kang and Oun Dahl, the Fool In the old kingdom of Koguryo, there was a princess named Pyong Kang. She was a crybaby. She cried all the time. Whenever she cried, the King always made fun of her, saying “I’ll make you marry Oun Dahl, the fool.” Oun Dahl was a well-known beggar in town who lived with his old mother. He would do whatever people told him to do, even make a fool of himself to get food to support his mother. People would say things like, “Oun Dahl, bark like a dog and I will give you some rice.” He was not too proud to do it. He was a kindhearted man, though, and always smiled and laughed. When Pyong Kang became 16 years old, the King arranged for her to get married to the prince of the neighboring kingdom. Then the princess said, “Father, you’ve told me all my life that I’m going to marry Oun Dahl, the fool. I shall marry Oun Dahl.” The king told her that he had not been serious, but the princess would not listen. The king became very angry so he kicked her out of the palace. Pyong Kang took what little jewelry and silk she had and went to find Oun Dahl. Oun Dahl and his mother graciously accepted the princess. She sold all her belongings to help support her husband and his mother. Then she set about the task of educating Oun Dahl. She taught him everything she knew. When the neighboring country invaded Koguryo, an unknown warrior led the army and contributed greatly to the defeat of the enemy. Curious who this impressive man was, the king called him in and found that this unknown warrior was the very Oun
Dahl, whom he had once called the idiot. The king made him a general and welcomed his daughter, Princess Pyong Kang back to the palace.
Note: This is based on a true story. Koguryo was one of the many ancient kingdoms of
Korea and lasted for approximately 700 years from the year 37 BC. Pyong Kang and Oun Dahl are real characters from the 7th century.
