The giant lives on. Speaks of the Tlingit Legend, "How Mosquitoes Came To Be"

                                            The Giant Lives On         Every time I read the Tlingit Legend, 'How Mosquitoes Came To Be,' there are certain questions that come to mind about where the legend came from and who wrote it.

Overall I                                                                                          Daily 5 enjoyed the legend and the creativity, but after reading it several times the questions began to jump out at me like crickets in the night. Humans need to learn that we are not the only intelligent life on the planet, and if we ever did come across any giants, we should try to act rationale instead of rash.
