2 Part II The Beginning of the Journey 2

3 3 STAGE 1 The Innocent The Orphan The Warrior The Caregiver

4 4 THE INNOCENT The Innocent moves from an unquestioning acceptance of the environment through experiencing disillusionment (fall) to a return to Paradise as a wise innocent. EXAMPLES: Brady Bunch, Forrest Gump, Bambi, Gomez Adams, Leo the Late Bloomer, The Little Mermaid, Pinocchio

5 The Innocent or the Fool “Smart” “Sour Face Ann” “Something Missing 5

6 Smart My dad gave me one dollar bill ‘Cause I’m his smartest son, And I swapped it for two shiny quarters ‘Cause two is more than one! And then I took the quarters And traded them to Lou For three dimes—I guess he don’t know That three is more than two! Just then, along came old blind Bates And just ‘cause he can’t see He gave me four nickles for my three dimes, And four is more than three! And I took the nickels to Hiram Coombs Down at the seed-feed store, And the fool gave me five pennies for them, And five is more than four! And then I went and showed my dad, And he got red in the cheeks And closed his eyes and shook his head— Too proud of me to speak! Shel Silverstein’s Where the Sidewalk Ends, page 35 6

7 Sour Face Ann Sour Face Ann, With your chin in your hand, Haven’t you ever been pleased? You used to complain That you had no fur coat, And now you complain of the fleas. Shel Silverstein’s A Light in the Attic, page 90 7

8 Something Missing I remember I put on my socks, I remember I put on my shoes. I remember I put on my tie That was painted In beautiful purples and blues. I remember I put on my coat, To look perfectly grand at the dance, Yet I feel there is something missing I may have forgot— What is it? What is it?... NOTE: And here the poem ends. What is it? What is it? … That rhymes with “dance.” Shel Silverstein’s A Light in the Attic, page 26 8

9 The Fool in Alvin Schwartz’s Chin Music and in Shel Silverstein’s A Light in the Attic Shaking Geraldine now, stop shaking that cow For heaven’s sake, for your sake and the cow’s sake. That’s the dumbest way I’ve seen To make a milk shake. Page 18 9
