The Surprise

I read "The Surprise".

"—Think how upset they would be if we didn't go." "Think how upset Lucky will be if he comes home and we're not here," said Ben.
 This story is about Ben in a wheelchair and his missing cat.

 One day, his father said that he had a surprise to him and his sister. The surprise was a kitten. A woman who had the kitten had a cat and two tiny kittens. So Ben and his sister asked their father to have them both and his father accepted. They looked after them well every day.
 One Friday evening his father was going to take Ben and his sister to stay with their aunt and uncle with their kittens. When his father put Ben's wheelchair in the car boot, he left the front door of the house open. He did't see one of their kittens slip out into the garden...

 I was surprised at a cat's whereabouts.

The Missing Shoes (Part 2)

I read "The Missing Shoes (Part 2)".  A girl, Sam, had lost her shoes. Her friends helped her to look for them, but they could not find them. She did not know what to do. So she sat on a bench with sadness. Then a dog came to run to her and the dog liked her. And the owner gave her shoes to her with a promise.  I thought their friends and the elderly woman were so kind and this story made me happy.

After the good-by party, he got in a taxi and he had slept as soon as he got in. Suddenly, a dangerous man with a gun got in the taxi. Jack was made to stay in the boot of the taxi. However, he could help the officers to arrest the man from there.

Rumpelstiltskin

I read   “Rumpelstiltskin” There was once a poor Miller who had a beautiful daughter. One day, he told an impossible lie to the King who loved money in order to be an essential person for the King . The lie was that his daughter could spin straw into gold. Therefore, she was taken to the castle and locked in the chamber. The King said ,“If you have not spun this straw into gold by an early hour to-morrow, you must die.” At that time, the Dwarf appeared and helped her by getting her necklace. So she wasn’t killed. And the next day, she was also helped by him by giving her ring. And the next day, she was also helped again by promising him to give her first-born child. So she got married to the King. But, when she gave birth to her first-born child, the Dwarf appeared again. I had never read this story before. I had thought that the Dwarf was a kind person, but he was horrible in the end.
