The Wizard of Oz

Dorothy lives in Kansas, USA, but one day a cyclone blows her and her house to a strange country called Oz. There, Dorothy makes friends with the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion. But she wants to go home to Kansas. Only one person can help her, and that is the country's famous Wizard. So Dorothy and her friends take the yellow brick road to the Emerald City, to find the Wizard of Oz...
I thought Dorothy is an active girl.
Magic word to go home is impressive. The magic word is "East, west - home's best." I think it means hometown is the best.
I want to meet the Cowardly Lion and make friends.
Please read it!

    You are also an active girl, so I think you could have a journey to a strange country like Oz. If you were Dorothy, you would decide the magic words with your good sense of humor.

The Three Billy Goats Gruff

イメージ
Clomp, clomp, clomp! Little Billy started across the bridge. Then he heard a cranky voice."Stop there! I am going to eat you up!" yelled Troll. "Wait for my brother. He is bigger and much more delicious than I!" cried Little Billy."What a fine idea," said Trol, licking his lips. And with that, Little Billy crossed the bridge. (pp. 6-8) Three Billy goats gruff are very clever! They cooperated and defeated Troll.  I think Trol is an overly honest. I've just remembered "三匹のやぎのがらがらどん"  Findley, V. (2006). The three Billy Goats Gruff . New York, NY: Scholastic.

"And he's ... stealing the Mona Lisa!" (p.3) Marcel is a French mouse, and a detective. He has lots of friends in Paris. One of them is Céline. She paints pictures and is very beautiful. Céline's home is at the Louvre. Marcel often goes there for dinner. One day he arrives with some pink flowers. There is a guard at the door. He doesn't know him, he thinks he must be new. Marcel had a meal with Céline, after that he walks across the floor. He is very happy. Then he stops. The room is dark, but he can see something. There was a man with a long knife. He stole the Mona Lisa. The thief smiles and picks up the bag, but a second later he puts it again. Marcel thinks "It's now or never." He runs along the wall very fast, climbs up the tall, black bag, and jumps inside it... If you are interested in the rest of that story, please read it.
