Welcome, friends. In making SwiftRiverResources.com, I have found that some things just don't "fit" into the framework of the site. Here are some of the things I have found online that bring to life the studies of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle Please use these alongside your journey starting on SwiftRiverResources.com.
Listed below are a description of the book from the publisher and posted on Amazon, articles from Wikipedia, recipes, places to explore, discussion questions, as well as some points to ponder.
Please also find a PDF below with a full set of extra worksheets and word lists from SwiftRiverResources.com. Note: teacher keys and auto-graded quizzes are still accessed through a subscription to SwiftRiverResources.com.
Excerpt from Amazon.com:
Perhaps the marker of a true mythos is when the stories themselves overshadow their creator. Originally published under a pseudonym as The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent., The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Other Stories gave America its own haunted mythology. This collection of larger-than-life tales contains Washington Irving’s best-known literary inventions—Ichabod Crane, the Headless Horseman, and Rip Van Winkle—that continue to capture our imaginations today.
