after reading some of these posts it was brought to my attention that coyote was a person. for whatever reason i was thinking it was some sort of wolf or animal.
another interesting thing in this story is that animals and humans are both "people" which is different from our society. it seems to be suggesting that we are similar to them, and they can talk so it gets confusing. i enjoyed the story because of how out of the ordinary it is. its challenging us to think past the norm and consider animals and humans coexisting together in a little town. Coyote is suggested as being crazy and the fact that she talks to her poop pretty much clarifys that. she acts like they are her children. this is another thing that makes this story weird, along with the fact that this little child with one eye can comprehend any of what has happened to her.
