BR 2-3: Stories of Ghosts

There are three stories in this book, "stories of Ghosts". Theses stories are "the story of shiver ham hall", "school for spooks", "the tale of the haunted TV". Especially, I like "the story of shiver ham Hall". This story is most interesting of three stories.

There was hotel only ghosts come. Ghost visited comfortably at the hotel. One day, a man appeared at the ghost hotel and he planted that the hotel would be his new hotel. Ghosts were in trouble. At the night, he stayed the hotel, so ghosts tried to surprise and go out him. Ghosts did hard, but they couldn't scare him. In addition, he utilized ghosts to be haunted hotel.
A ghost woman appeared when ghost was very in trouble. The ghost woman was his grandmother. He was very surprised and scared because he had been terrified of her when she was alive. He ran away from the hotel and tore up his plans. So, ghost thanks her.

This stories is good. When I read this story I laughed in spite of myself. This story is short stories. So, I thought I wanted to read books longer than this because the book is very simple and easy to read. So, I want to read long and a substantial story but it is good to be able to read easily.

I chose this book "the emperor's new clothes" because I have known about a little this story. I wanted to know the story in detail.

This story's character is Emperor who likes clothes. He wasn't interested anything without clothes. He had many clothes. However he wasn't satisfied with clothes because he worn them all before. So, he ordered follower who took care of all his clothes to find the finest clothes-makers in town. And then, he found two strangers in town. They said "We're the finest clothes-makers in the world". So, follower took them to the emperor. They said Emperor "We could make magical clothes and the clothes can only be seen by clever people". So, Emperor was very excited. Emperor gave them a lot of money to make the clothes. They cheated Emperor and They ordered in the finest silks and the most expensive gold thread besides but they didn't use any of it. The Emperor was very fool. They told him not to see a thing during they worked. However, Emperor's didn't wait to see the clothed. So, he went to see his clothes but he didn't see anything.
On the morning of the royal procession, he wore the new clothes. They take him wore the clothes but he can't see the new clothes. And citizen was surprised and laugh the Emperor because he didn't wear anything in fact. He noticed that he didn't wear anything at last.

This story was very interesting. I thought the two cloth-maker who made Emperor's clothes were good at cheating. they had the gift of gab.

I knew her poor parts. So, I teach her English as simple as possible.

I like this series of book 'USBORNE YOUNG READING' because I can read listening these books with CD. I didn't know the story of 'Pinocchio' expect pinocchio's nose grow long if he tell a lie.

☆story☆
Pinocchio was made by Gepetto as his puppet. After pinocchio was given the legs and arms, he ran out of Gepetto's house, and Gepetto chased him waving his chisel. Then, Gepetto was caught by policeman.
Pinocchil reterned Gepetto's house and had a worm by the fire. When Gepetto came back home, the fire had burned off his feet. So, Gepetto helped him and gave him a new pair of feet. Pinocchio promised him to be a good son. Pinocchio wanted to be read boy.
When Pinocchio went to saw a puppet's show, he got five gold coins from manager. So, he was pleased because I thought that Gepetto could buy anything with these coins. And he met a cat and a fox. They fold him "You can triple these money if you come with us". So, Pinocchio followed them but he was cheated and he ran away from them.
Next, he met fairy. When she asked him where coins are, he told a lie to her. So, his nose grew a little longer!!
