Book review [Stories of Pirates]

I read Stories of Pirates. I had to return the book on last Tuesday, but I forgot and brought it to America! And I can’t contact with librarians. Oh, my god!! I have to apologize to the librarians after I came back in Japan. I'll tell you one of the stories, ‘The pesky parrot’. A boy whose name is Charlie. He had spent ten years at Pirate school. And he tries to be a pirate.He knew how to read a treasure map, how to give a proper pirate's laugh and so on. Fortunately, he got old pirate ship by his grandfather, but he thought that I don't have something special. I need a parrot!!Then, he went to buy a parrot and got pretty parrot. He liked it, first.But the parrot always cried when Charlie try to steal some treasures of others. He shouts ‘STOP THIEF!!’After that, the captain notices his bad action. He gets mad and chases him. Charlie tried to reject the parrot, but he came back to Charlie many times. He didn't know what should I do? He was so miserable and didn't eat anything in the restaurant. Then, the parrot squawked again, because a thief was just about to wipe all the money! The landlord prized them.This gave Charlie an idea. It became his new job! They enjoyed the new job.And Charlie got some money and bought another QUIET parrot, again!

I think this story is funny too. The parrot is bad for pirates. He is too honest to put up with thief of his owner. I don’t know well that he is lucky or not!

School stared

Second day, I went to Bethl university first time. In the morning, my mother sent me a house. There is not university. I confused, but I've got it! This is car pool. I learned about carpool in speaking class so I could understand! Three people shared a car. This is good idea!

In school, we took ESL class and went to tour of Bethel. Bethel university is too huge for me so I may make mistakes many times.
After the tour, we went Riverboat Cruise at Mississippi river. It was so comfortable. I could see a lot of natures. I made a new friend!! She is so funny and kind! She interested in Japan so I want to teach about Japan.

We had good supper in the beautiful garden. We grilled chickens and ate with tomato. There were Delicious!

The next day, we heard lecture of a philosophy professor. He can speak Japanese very well. That was really interesting lecture!

After that, we played with balloons. We had good times! And after the game, we could have discussion with Bethel students. I asked some questions so I could know about American students life. I was enjoyed too.

After the school, we went to eat some Mexican foods and ice cream. It was so delicious. And we went to Velodorme. The place is to race by bicycle. My father really likes to ride bike and he usually go to race in summer. There were a lot of people, and it was so exciting!

Finally, I felt a sleep quickly.
