No. 11 Different Worlds

Before I was born, my mum played music with four friends. There's a photograph of them in our living room. Evie, Grace, Angela, Kate and my mum. (p.6)

I read a book called Different Worlds. This is a romantic story. The main character is a deaf woman, so she feels she lives a different world. One day, she falls in love with Jim who is a musicion. However she worries about their worlds too different because she can't hear anything. Although Jim loves her too! In the end of this story is happyend. I was touched by emotional ties and family bond. I can understand the deaf people's feeling.

SIR ANTHONY EVANS PLAYS LISZT. The words above the door of the theatre were a metre high. On the wall there was a big picture of Sir Anthony at the piano. Hundreds of people were waiting outside the ticket office. (p.1)

I read a book, "The piano." The main character is Anthony. He was very poor at first. So, he woked on firm. At that time, many people loved music but, most people couldn't hear the music at the concert. That's because the concert's tickets was very expensive. Anthony also loved music but he never played the piano. One day, he found a beautiful old piano. Then he tried to play. Surprisingly, he could play very well though he never played it! I was very surprised at this. In the end of this story, he could be a pianist who is the most popular.

HENRY AND MUDGE AND ANNIE'S PERFECT PET

HENRY AND MUDGE AND ANNIE'S PERFECT PET

Henry and Henry's big dog Mudge always visited Cousin Annie next door.
Annie used to live far away.
Henrry didn't see much of her.
But now she lived next door and it was fun.
Henry and Annie rode bikes, played Frisbee, and traded comics.
And, of course, they petted Mudge all the time.

I read Henry and Mudge and Annie's Perfect Pet. Henry and Henry's parents and Henry's big dog Mudge took Annie to the pet store. Annie chose a white baby bunny. She had a warm nose, just like Mudge.

This trip will cost a considerable amount of money, so I have to work part-time hard.

The Josefina Story Quilt

I read "The Josefina Story Quilt".


It was May 1850.
Faith was excited.
They were going to California in a covered wagon.
