   I read "The Flying Machine". This story is that two children time slip into the era when the plane was first created. In the era, they meet two men who is trying to make an airplane first in the world. The children know the structure of an airplane, so they advise the men. However, after all, they failed and Wright brothers, who everyone knows well, succeeded in flying for the first time in the world. The men couldn't make the flight a success, but I thought they were great to quickly come up with ideas for their next goal.

Book Review   Seasons and Celebrations       I read “Seasons and Celebrations”. Today, even in Japan, there is a custom to celebrate and enjoy overseas festival. For example, Valentine’s Day, Easter, Halloween, Christmas and so on. When I was little, I was looking forward to those events every year. However, many Japanese probably do not know their origin. This book tells us about not only their origins but also the true way of celebrating. Among the many events that have been introduced in this book, this time I will introduce Christmas.     For the Japanese, Christmas is December 24 th rather than 25 th . People decorate their homes and shops with illuminations and eat chicken for dinner. Then, on the morning of the 25 th , the children will check to see if they have received a gift from Santa Claus. This is how to spend Christmas in Japan. On the other hand, Christmas is a very important time in the Christian year, but it is also very important to people who do not go

Book Review “ San Francisco ”     I read “San Francisco”. After reading this book, I was very interested in San Francisco and I wanted to visit there. I want to travel there in the spring or autumn. Especially, I want to visit Golden Gate Park and feeling the air of nature there. From this book, I could know about Sun Francisco, which I had never known before. I was surprised at the frequent earthquakes in San Francisco as in Japan and the summer climate. I understood why many people came to San Francisco well. I learned many things for example, history of San Francisco, the importance of a cable car, and famous people, books and places to know when talking about there. This book tells you a lot about San Francisco and show some interesting photos. If you read this book, you would want to travel in San Francisco and watch the movies with San Francisco.

The Signalman and the Ghost at the Trial

Book Review The Signalman and the Ghost at the Trial    I read 'The Signalman and the Ghost at the Trial'. This story's genre is horror. Both of the books in this book are horror stories, but what I felt after reading was completely different. First, I'll talk about story of  'The Signalman'.    'I had not said those words. I had thought them. They were words in my mind. ' This is the quote of this story. After reading this story, I felt very sad because at the end of the story, the signalman died suddenly. I couldn't understand why he died, but there are some signals that predicted some accidents would happen in the story.    'Suddenry, somebody put his hand on my arm. I looked round, but there was nobody there. I was alone.' Second, I'll talk about 'The Ghost at the Trial'. This story is also strange. This is a story that the victim killed by the murderer becomes a ghost and appears in front of the man. After r
