 Looney Tunes Doing a Storybook that mixes together both an Indian Epic and a present day relation we can all make like the Looney Tunes would be a fun project to both work on and read.  There are so many different Looney Tunes characters that it would not be difficult to find switches to be made between the stories.

I don't think I am always very good at putting my own unique twist on a story such as this one, but doing some more...
