ate big bowl of fishes. It costs 3,500 yen so very expensive but it is the most

delicious of all dishes. I think that you like it. Then, I want to go Enoshima.

the island. The most famous food is Shirasu. It’s a small fish. It is delicious

too. At night, we are going to stay hotel in Hakone. It is beautiful place. We

BR-13:Oliver & Amanda and the big snow

"Come on, Amanda. Let's make a sandwich." (P32)

I will introduce about this picture book. Do you remember the day when you saw heavy snow for the first time? Oliver and Amanda are children pigs. One day, it was snow day. They have seen snow for the first time. They put dress warm, a lot of sweaters, snowsuits, scarves, woolly hats and mittens. Outside, everything looked different background. They threw snowballs. I think we play with snowballs in snow day too. Their father helps them and they had made a pile of snow even taller than father. His father and mother were very kind. They have hot hart. Amanda and Oliver became like snow. Oliver was sitting on the snow pile making a hundred snowballs. When I was a junior high school student, I made a lot of snowballs and I threw each my friend in school’s ground. They made Snow Mountain and they digging a hole. Oliver made s flag out of his bat and stick. Then a snowball hit the flag. I have never made a Snow Mountain because it is never heavy snow in Kumamoto. I want to make it once a alive. In addition, Oliver went to zooming down the big hill on sled. Oliver said “Let’s make a sandwich. This mean is mother on the bottom, than Amanda, than me”. Amanda is the peanut butter and the others are the bread. This idea is so cute. Then, they build a snow pig. Every morning they looked out the windows at their snorp. It got smaller and smaller. I have experienced it when I was a child. I enjoy made a snowman but next day, it melt and it became smaller. I read this book, I feel happy. I remember my children’s memory of snowy day. I love this book and I hope you should read one.

BR-12*Bears odd, bears even

Which number is odd? Which is even? (P6)

There are four white bears and five brown bears. Polar bears playing an even number. Brown bears playing an odd number. This book is number playing. Even number is 2, 4, 6, 8… Odd number is 1, 3, 5, 7… Six bears play tug-of-war. Three against tree’s winner is brown bears. Because of three is odd number. When odd bears fight, brown bears always win. When even bears fight, white bears always win. This book can enjoy study numbers for children. However, I feel little scary this picture. This bears’ pictures are not cute but this story is very good for everyone.

BR-10：A dog named Sam

And Sam fetched enery newspaper from every porch on the block. (P13)

I introduce about this picture book “A dog named Sam”. The first story is “Fitch, Sam”. Sam loved fetch more than baking, chawing or digging holes in the ground. He had to fetch something and Noah and Molly praised him “Good dog, Sam!” however, one day Sam commit some mistake. His mother was angry. He was depressed. After all, he fetched Molly and Noah. Everyone became happy. I had a dog looks like Sam. My dog not alive but I became miss him. Second story is “Get out of the water, Sam”. Sam liked water. Whenever he saw water, he jumped in. When Sam followed Molly and Noah to the beach, he leaped into the water. Sam went fishing with father, he jumped into the lake. When mother took Sam to the park, he lay down in a fountain. Moreover, he was into bathtub. Final story is “Good night Sam”. When his family go to bed, Sam is awake. Sam is very noisy in every night. He is sing, bark and howl. Besides, Sam scratched at the doors many times. His family was angry very well. They could not sleep. In the morning, he lay down and closed his eyes. He had had a busy night. I think Sam is badly brought up. Sam gets beneath my skin. Sam is very noisy and if I have had this dog, I may get angry.

BR-09:Stories of monsters

I read "Stories of monsters".  First story is “The bed monster’s secret”.

Do you have any images of monster? Perhaps, we think monsters have ten eyes, or long slimy tentacles, or huge, sharp teeth, or all of these.

As soon as a man named Ben switched off the light and he went to bed, the monster woke with a snort. It was evening. He was scary so he could not sleep every night. One day, he built a monster trip and as soon as his monster trip had worked. Although, he listened a tiny voice and he saw smallest monster in the world. The monster is too small to scare anymore but he is not stupid! So Ben go to school with the monster and was helped this monster when he couldn’t answer the mathematics’ question. They were happy. When I read this picture book, I was happy too. The monster is very cute. If I find a small monster under the bed, I became friend with him and I take his up to my school. I recommend this book to you.

"Don't stop at the big, black rock. that's where the trolls live!" (P8)

I introduce about this book. There are a lot of giants for example there were naughty ones, wild ones, sad ones and kind ones. In this picture book, there are two stories of giants. I pick up one and I want to introduce“Jon and the green troll”. In this story, there are an old man and his son’s Jon. Jon went for a trip alone. For the first time, they are poor farmer so they went down to the sea to fish. Although, the old man became too older so he could not go to trip. The old man warmed to him when Jon went to trip but he didn’t remember her father’s warming. In his trip, he saw a giant green troll at last but this green troll was gentle. She looked after him. When he came home, green troll teach him fishing spot near the pointed rock. He went there then he could have a lot of fishes. Moreover when he go to the cave again, he found piles of treasure and gold. Jon and his father became happy forever. At the first time, I felt scary of him but this troll was very kind. This is hart warming story. If I trip alone, I want to see green troll and I want to find treasure box too. I recommend to you this book.

BR-07:China

"Buddhists also believe in karma. Do good things, and good things will happen to you." (p26)

I think I came to be familiar with China to read this picture book. At first, China is one of the biggest country in the world. Do you know the thing? Besides, China is a country with a population of 1.3 billions. That is, both the population and the area are the biggest of the world. And Beijing is the capital city. I have never been to China so I want to go there to read this book. The reason why I want to go China is because living in China seems to be in good spirits. It really sounds fun! It is said that the busiest and biggest cities in China is Shanghai. According to picture of this book, I thought that it also sounds fun to go out around this city. On the other hands, I found some bad points. It is the number of people. I was really surprised at people living there and going out around Shanghai. what is more, a number of people uses bicycles to get from place to place. It may be difficult for people who begins to live for the first time there to be used to live. when it comes to their public holidays, Kite-flying is popular in China. I didn't know this word. It may be Chinese word I think. There are a lot of words I didn't know until I begin to read this book. But you know reading this book is absolutely good for me. Also the differences between Japan and China exists a lot. Each way to spend at New Year is different. But same things also exists. Being able to live in peace is same. That is, both Japan and China spends in peace without war. I think we should feel grateful for it. That's exactly the same thing.          322/5866
