The Wonderful Tar Baby

I loved this story it was very interesting to hear the difference in how people talked back in the day but it was also nice to see that people haven’t changed much this story is about a rabbit that does something dumb because he was arrogant but he eventually out smarted the fox i think this is good for people to read because our arrogance can be blinding but just because our backs are against the wall doesn’t mean you can’t outsmart your opponent. The problem is society has changed the way this book was supposed to be interpreted. they see it as bad when they should see it as not matter how hard a situation is there is always a way to get ahead of your opponent. I think this story is very good in explaining race and class because you see the rabbit isn’t high class but he still struts his stuff because he isn’t any less than the fox.
