As I was reading this story all I could imagine is a huge
stickball game being played between these two groups of animals. Stickball was
not only a game played for fun but it was also used as a way to create peace
between feuding tribes. The players usually were the tribe’s greatest warriors
like the bear and the terrapin were for the animal team. In the case of the
bird team, their greatest warriors might not have been strong but they were
cunning and determined to prove themselves. I think that this story shows that
you may be the underdog but that should never keep you from trying. If the two
small animals (the bat and the flying squirrel) would have given up, they never
would have had the opportunity to see who they really were and become who they
were supposed to be.
