  1. I like the morning light story because it explains the most About honesty. The 2 sisters weren't being honest to their dad so they faced the consequences.

  2. I personally liked the story of Morning light and her to evil sisters because it shows what the real meaning of honesty is. Even though both those sisters had cut Morning Light's hair they should have been more clever and took those bracelets off. It was still wrong that they lied about cutting their sisters hair and leaving scars on her face.:(

  3. i liked the story of morning light and her two evil sisters because they got away with lying at first but later they got caught (just like in real life) and it also says that even if you do not get caught you will feel so guilty and will be living in fear of the person you lied to. just like the two sisters who were afraid every time they saw the warrior that could turn himself invisible.

  4. I like the story of morning light and her two evil sisters because it tells you what the true meaning of honesty is because the two sisters got caught because they were wearing those bracelets and rings and they had told their sister that it was not them and they cut her hair and left scares all over his face also when morning light came they had acted as if they saw morning light but they didn't so that is another honesty thing while the one nice sister with the scars was honest about it.

  6. The story I liked from the video was the one about George Washington. I liked this because he was completely honest with his father when he father wanted to know who cof down the cherry tree. George Washington said "father I can not tell a lie. I was the INS who cut off the cherry odchids.". His father was sad that he lost his cherry orchids but was proud that he had such an honest son. This story taught me that honesty is the best policy. This is why this story conveyed me the most.

  7. I like the story of George Washington because when he went out to play with his brand new hatchet, he accidently cut down the rare cherry tree. But when his father found out that his tree was cut down he asked his son that was playing outside. George said to his father that I did cut the tree. Even though his dad lost the tree he was still very proud of his son because George was very honest with his dad

  8. I liked the story of the three sisters the most because it shows that when you are not honest the end result(punishment) to the person who is doing something bad is going too be worse too.

  9. I believe that the story of Morning Light was the best story to teach you how not to lie because eventually if keep lying you'll loose trust and wont ever gain trust from anyone. And i believe that if morning lights 2 sisters had admitted what they had done they would've not gone into so much trouble.

  10. I like the one where George gets a new axe and is trusted with the family cherry tree but George gets out of control and chops it down but when his dad asks him if he knew who did it and George responded it was me his dad said I am proud that you were honest

  11. I think that the story about morning light and her two evil sisters taught a very good lesson because it showed that all the women were lying when they said they saw the man but he wasn't visible. When that event occured I understood that the lesson they were trying to teach was not to lie and be honest, because honesty can get h to better places , not lying.

  12. i liked the story of George Washington because when George Washington planted a tree and when he gave his son a new axe he told him that he wont damage anything but still he got to excited so he swung his axe everywhere and he broke the tree.

  13. i HONESTLY like the story of morninglight and her sisters the most because it show the most about being honest. and not just because the sisters didn't admit they hurt morninglight, but also because everyone that tried to find strong wind said they saw him when they didn't, but morninglight did and that makes her very honest.
