Two Stories Compare(1) In the story ”A Coyote Columbus Story”, when Coyote wanted to go to a party for Christopher Columbus, the author said, ”Christopher Columbus didn’t find America and Indians.” Coyote believed that Christopher Columbus found America and Indians because she read if from a “big red history book”. However , the author thought that book ”must have been a Coyote book” and “Coyote is one silly Coyote”. The truth is not easy like how people think about it. The silly fact that Coyote believed was different from what happened. The author used word ”silly” to describe a Coyote book. Silly means not sensible, or showing bad judgment. It point out how terrible Coyote is. In his mind, the truth was like an animal, and “Coyote’s stories have got Coyote tails and some of Coyote’s stories are covered with scraggy Coyote fur but all of Coyote’s stories are bent.” Tails and fur are just parts of an animal, like Coyote’s stories are also parts of the truth Coyote had knowledge and abilities to wrote and told people stories, and someone who is like the girl Coyote trusted her. It made them believe a fake truth. Coyote concealed what Christopher Columbus did and the horrible facts about colonization. She gave people a wonderful happy ending which was a beautiful lie.
