The story i choose for my FYP is "PERAHU KERAK NASI" or Rice Crusts Boat.
Why? Because it is one of our national story and uncommon to us. According to monthly story embed on '366 Cerita Rakyat Malaysia' books, this story been discharge in April. Another purpose of choosing the story is because we often heard or know story of Outwitting Sang Kancil, Sang Kancil Menolong Kerbau, Sang Kancil Dengan Harimau...etc...so, Sang Kancil is famous fable story in Malaysia. Throughout whole story that i have read, this story involve Sang Kancil; mousedeer too....There also have its own moral value shown in the story.
Following are the detail description of the story:
