BR 2-18: Arthur's First Kiss (Brown Marc, 2001)

"I'm writing each boy's name on a piece of paper for a game," Francine said to everyone. But she didn't write each boy's name. She wrote only Arthur's name."

This book is very interesting. I laughed it. This story is about the girl who want to kiss with Francine. She is interesting. She is cute but Francine doesn't like the girl. I feel sad to it. She plays cheeting game with her friends in her home party. Francine could avoid her kiss thanks to his sister. His sister is very lucky and clever. I like this scene. I want to have my sister like her. Arthur has never kissed, so I want her to kiss for the first time. This book is really interesting. In addition, this book has seal. I like seal very much, and I want to get this seal because it is very cute. However, this book is university's book, so I couldn't get it. It is very good book for children to enjoy reading and playing with seal.

"Now everyone is happy, Puss said. What a very clever cat I am! Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

 

 

 This book's story is about clever cat. This story is known by Japanese people too. It's name is "Nagagutsu wo haita Neko". It is very famous in Japan.

It is little difficult for me to read it, but I liked it. I was surprised at talking a cat, but I like this cat because he is very clever. I was very glad to become happy everyone finally. I think that I want to be such a clever woman. I want to read the book written in Japanese again.

BR 2-13: Alice in Wonderland (Carroll Lewis, 2006)

"Alice screamed... and woke up to find her sister gently brushing dead leaves from her face. "Oh, I've had such a wonderful dream," she said and told her all about it, before running off for tea."

 

This book is very famous all over the world. It is Disney's book. I had read it in Japanese, and I liked it very much. I read English story for the first time. I think that English story is different from Japanese one. It is a few differences. However, I like both. I like the scene that Alice become very small, and she is in the small world. Then she become very big in the small world, so she can't be the small house. She went on growing and growing until one arm was out of the window and her foot was stuck up the chimney. I like this scene because it is very unbelievable story and very interesting. I want to go the small world very much.
