Disney's Robin Hood (my Week 12 Reading)

The unit that I am looking forward to the most in this course is the Middle Eastern and Indian Units as both of the topics I selected are major historical stories that I would love to research. As for topics not covered in the book, it would be nice to have a section on Aztec and Mayan mythology as it is the only mythology not listed that I know. The story I would like to look into the most is the story of Robin Hood as I am extremely familiar with the subject matter having watched the Disney interpretation near a hundred times as a kid and read the Howard Pyle Robin Hood for a report in middle school.
