I read "The love of a king". It is published oxford bookwormers library. This story is about Edward-8. He is try to a woman who had a hasband but they are critisize by many people. So he gave his position to his brother and they get away from British. Before finishing reading it, this story is pure love story. My favorite scene is that they don't give up against other's opposite and he protect her. However they could spent happy and rich time. So I thought that this is a kind of stolen love.

There is rich family in London but suddenly they must have left there without their father. This is why he is doubted that he is spy. From them the story begin, The children’s name is Roberta, Peter, and Phyllis. They have many adventure and grow up. Before I read it, I thought this story is little sad but my expectation was betrayed. The children and thei mother is poor and their house is not good. However they live strongly and find many fun things. What I thought after reading this book is that there are attracting things everywhere and we can change our future.

    Aladdian and the enchanted lamp was written by Judith Dean. One boy, Aladdin lives in arabia with poor mother and he spend lazy life. One day Abanazar came to his and deceive with a story of a lie. His purpose is that forgetting the lamp and getting it. So he takes him out. From there, their story begin.     I have heard the tittle before I read it. So I choose the book and thought to know story. At first I thought Aladdin is very cool or inteligent but in fact, he is lazy and not kind man. He is not perfect but he has kindness and big courage. Therefore the story is interesting and feel familiar.

'Divorced - beheaded - died - divorced - beheaded.' (p.39) This story wrote about Henryⅷ and six women who is his wives. Catherine Parr, the last wife tells the maid the truth of their letters. In their letters, each of their individual oersonality appears and it is easy to understand the flow very much.  First I thought that I don't like Henry's handing about women and marriage view. Because he immediately kills or divorces women he doesn't like. I thought that not being able to love one women would lead to Britain's request for a female king.

Then, one by one, he put the pieces of wet paper into his mouth and ate them. In ten minutes, the passport had disppeared.(p.13) The strange of this story starts from the airplane. An embassy in a certain country and the police are hijacked. The hijacker's request is to release their companions. I really recommended this book. Not only the imression and tension like a movie, but also the expression of the characters have been transmitted. It was felt that the conversation with hijacker was real and never easy.
