I wish there were the fish that talked because I had goldfish, so if there were talking fish, I thought that it was very interesting. I was surprised that the fish turned out a powerful god. This story has its setting in India. Therefore, it was the Hindu god. I also thought that suppose Manu hadn't help the fish.

The walls were made from chunks of cake and the roof was glistening chocolate.(p. 30)
I knew about this story a little. But I didn't know a whole story, so I read it. I thought Hansel and Gretel were clever and strong children. They were bullied by their stepmother and got dumped. However, they beat their brain and they could survive. I thought both of them were very courageous because they survived by themselves. Finally, it was good that they could eat feast every night and live with their father.

He had spotted a beautiful girl in a pink and cream dress and he couldn't take his eyes off her. (p.14)
I chose this book because I am studying about Shakespeare, so I am interested in his productions. I almost knew the content of Romeo&Juliet. But I read this book for the first time, and I know this story in detail. Finally, both Romeo and Juliet died, but Montague and Capulet heal relationships and Romeo and Juliet were buried side by side. I didn't know this last scene.
It says this place used to be called Pirates Cove! (p.11)
I chose this book because I like bears. This family of bears is very cute and they get along well. I thought it was very nice that Papa Bear had a leadership to hunt for treasure. Finally, they couldn't find a treasure, but Papa left the treasure map for next Papa because the map was interesting and good for communicating with children. I like this last scene.
