Book Review 12: HARRY and the Lady Next Door

Harry was a white dog with black spots. He loved all his neighbors, all except one. He did not love the lady next door. The lady next door sang high and loud. When she sang, Harry’s ears hurt. Harry tried everything to make her stop; he howled under her window with his friends, but it did not do any good. The lady next door went on singing, and she sang higher and louder than ever. He tried everything to make her stop; He leaded some cows and the Firemen’s Band to the lady’s house. However, he could not do any good.
A few nights after that, the family took Harry to the park. They were going to hear the Firemen’s Band, but there was no horn player. Instead, they had a singing contest. There were some women on the stage. The lady next door was also on the stage. Seeing her, Harry ran away. Then he found a watering can. In fact, there were two frogs. He brought the can and ran back to the singing contest.
Thanks to Harry, the lady next door won the First Prize at the singing contest! It meant she could study music in a far-off country for a long time! He was the happiest of all. Soon the time came for the lady next door to go away. Harry went to the ship with the family to see her off. This time, the lady next door was singing again. However Harry thought it was the most beautiful good-bye song he had ever heard.

I like dogs, and I like these pictures on this book. Harry is so cute! Harry is an interesting dog. He thinks what he should do to stop the lady next door singing. He had a lot of ideas to support him, but nothing would help him.
I would like to read other series of Harry.

I have read this book in Japanese when I was child. But I felt they had some differences. The pictures on this book are very cute and it is fun to see them.

Book Review 10: The Magical Book

Leo lived with his granny in a tall house in the middle of town. He was an utterly ordinary boy such as you could find anywhere, but his life suddenly changed. One day, the Chancellor and the Prime Minister came to their house to see Leo. The Chancellor said to Leo,’’ Sire, your great-great-great-great-great grand father has died, and you are to be king!’’ Leo had never expected to be made a king, so he was very confused. However, the Chancellor said,’’ there is no time to lose.77 and he led Leo to a grand coach and whisked him away. After Leo arrived into the castle, he went looking for a book to read. When Leo said that he wanted to read all the books, the Chancellor shouted,’’ Stop!’’ and said,’’ Those looks aren’t well, safe…’’ In spite of the warning, Leo opened a book. The title was ‘The Book of Beats’

I thought this story, about a boy and a dragon, would be interesting when I saw the cover. However, the most exciting thing for me in this book was when the white horse came from a book. Also, I think The dragon which came from the book is not so bad animal.
For the first time, I did no like Leo and he was a bad king. However, he tried hard to find the dragon to stop destroying. Now, I think he is a great king.

Book Review 9: Alice in Wonderland

Alice was getting tired of sitting with her sister. She had tried reading her sister’s book, but as it didn’t have any pictures or people talking, it was very dull indeed. She was just wondering whether to pick some daisies for a daisy chain when a white Rabbit ran past. She didn’t care the White Rabbit because seeing a rabbit was not so very remarkable. However, when the Rabbit took a watch out oh its pocket, she jumped up. She chased after it and was just in time to see the Rabbit pop down a large hole. In a flash, Alice followed. Alice saw a lot of strange animals and people there. It was the entrance of the Wonderland!

I am not sure if I could understand everything in this story, Alice in Wonderland, because most things which happen in this story are so strange. There are a lot of strange animals and people in the Wonderland, but I think they are so interesting. I like the White Rabbit which led Alice into the Wonderland. However, I did not understand what the White Rabbit wanted to do and what happened to Alice.
I want to try the wonderful drink and cake!
