My Tuesday ;)

I went to a cafe with my friend after school recently. My friend and I talked about a recent event in our school, our friends, and our high school days. We talked for a long time, so I went home a little later than usual, but I had a very good time. I think we were so noisy because we laughed out loud there. We might cause people in a cafe a lot of trouble, so I am sorry about this. We will meet next Tuesday, then we will quiet...

The Spider and the Beehive

The spider was ready for the next treat. But when he tried to climb out of the hive, he was stuck. His had become too big! "Help! Get me out!" he cried. The boy said, "You have not been very nice to me. Good-bye, greedy spider!" Then off he went.(pp. 12-13) Today I read The Spider and the Beehive. The book was written by Kama Einhorn. Once upon a time, there was a small village and a little boy and a tricky spider are in it. The boy was good at finding the biggest and sweetest fruit in the village. Then, the tricky spider suggested going to jungle and getting some fruits with the boy.

The boy did not help him. Ahter all, the spider was able to get out, but he mended his ways and always shared his fruits since then. I think that the spilit of mutual aid is very very im

Bread and jam for Frances

Frances sang a little sad song: What I am Is tired of jam. (p.39) Frances is a fussy eater. She won't touch her soft-boiled egg. She trades away her sandwich at lunch. All she eats is bread and jam! But in the end of story, she is tired of jam. Although I like jam too, I will be tired if I eat it everyday. The scene where Frances cried because she didn't want to eat jam was very moving. It was easy for me to read it and this picture was very cute. So I want you to read it. I recommend that everyone read this book. Russell Hoban. (2008). Bread and jam for Frances . New York.
