Coyote and the Pebbles

Question: Why do the animals dislike the coyote so much for being late? Why don't they save him a spot in the sky? Why do the animals all leave without the coyote because he was running a little bit late? Should the coyote even have went to throw the pebbles into the sky if he is a day and night creature?

Comment: I think that the idea of the animals throwing pebbles at the sky is great and imaginative. The comic is really creative in having the animals throw pebbles to make their own portrait in the sky for brighter nights. Since the animals don't know any better they don't realize that what they are searching for is already there, the stars. I think it is very interesting that each animal is able to turn itself into human form and back to animal form at their own will. The illustrations portray the characters with so many emotions that I find it almost intriguing. 

Critique: I don't like that the coyote is conceited where in the poem he claims to be the "greatest in the world." I wonder why he feels the need to have the biggest portrait of them all. That makes us wonder why can't the other animals have the greatest and biggest sky portraits. Another thing I do not like is that when all is said and done and the wall of mystery announces that the animals won't be receiving more light at night, they once again blame the coyote for their unfortunate news.
