Lee and I have been telling Will the Greek Myths.

A few weeks ago, I told Will the myth of Orpheus.
At the end he was crying because Orpheus looked
back and Eurydice was drawn back to the Underworld.
He asked me to change the ending and I did to make
it so that Orpheus followed Hades's instructions
and did not look back, so his wife came back to the
land of the living. They lived happily ever after
and had lots of children.

Two days after that, Lee read to Will the myth of
Daedalus and Icarus. Again, Will was upset by the
ending and asked Lee to change it. Lee asked Will
how he would change it to make it a happy ending.
Will said "Have him listen to his Daddy and not go
too close to the sun." Lee asked what would happen
then, and Will said they would be safe, and he was
happy when they landed on the shore away from Minos.

Will has learned that following instructions
can turn a sad ending into a happy one.

Any other suggestions for Myth juxtapositions?
