Ok, we are studying the Greek Odyssey in English, and we are writing Greek myths to go along with the theme. I chose to title mine, "Why Squirrels are evil"...I want it to go somewhere along the lines of the squirrels being good at first, but then something happened to them and now they are evil and trying to take over the world. I need some help from all you creative genious's out there! Any ideas for my myth??? Or you could take a crack at writing it yourself. I have to make it a page long double spaced. I thought we could all have fun doing this together lol!

Why Squirrels Are Evil
Squirrels were once cute friendly little creatures. They helped all the other woodland animals and humans and squirrels lived in the same houses together in peace. The two species were the best of friends and always had nut picnics. Together they ruled the forest using wisdom and cooperation.
Every winter harvest the animals would gather sacrificial nuts for Human and Squirrel to eat. Squirrel would collect the nuts, and Human would divide them equally between the two because Squirrel wasn’t very good at math.
One day an evil penguin disguised as a non-evil penguin (he put on fake eyebrows that looked peppy) told Human that he had an idea to help him get more nuts. Now, really the penguin was only trying to destroy Squirrel and Human’s relationship so while there was chaos he could sneak up behind them and take the forest ruling power. So the penguin told Human to set aside ¾ of the nut pile for himself and to take only a little bit to Squirrel.
As the penguin was leaving he saw a peice of popcorn on a chair. The penguin loved popcorn so he sat on the chair to eat the popcorn. But the chair really wasn't a chair at all. It was the Evil Furniture Baron who is the guardian angel of the Squirrels! He swallowed the penguin up because he knew the penguin was only trying to take away the squirrels power!
Human took the penguins advice, and after only 5 months Human was as plump as a turkey while Squirrel was skin and bones. Squirrel began to suspect something was not right, so he hid under a cabbage leaf and went to spy on Human. He saw that Human was stealing the nuts then quickly scurried out of the room.
He then went and gathered all the woodland creatures together in a dark corner of the forest to tell them what Human was doing.
“He’s eating like a King while I am practically starving! We must get him out of the forest!”
All the animals agreed to an invasion. So the next morning Squirrel led the troops into the palace. They began clawing, biting, and tail-whapping the human. Bear and Rabbit lost the end of their tails in the fight. Raccoon got two black eyes. And Beaver’s tail got smashed. But in the end, Squirrel delivered the final blow with Acorn Sloane and Human was driven away while Squirrel remained in control of the forest.
When Human got out of the forest he began to create a new world. And when he was settled in he wrote all the animals apology cards…including Squirrel. The animals forgave him at once, but the squirrel still held bitter grudges. Squirrel swore that if it was the last thing he did; he would bring down the world of man!
