Week 10 Reading A: Inuit Folk Tales

I liked the story of the Coming of Men because it handled the concept of death in a way I've never seen before. Rather than being a punishment for some crime, death was chosen by a human as a trade off to get light. The world couldn't really get started until people could die, and it was acknowledged that a world in which no one dies would be overcrowded and terrible. I also like how all the choices were made by women. And one of the first things humans did was decide they wanted dogs, which is relatable.
