Book Review (Sixpence, long ver)

"I don't think it's the mother's job to beat the children. It's the duty of the father. And, besides, he impresses them so much more." (p.54)

This story was about a boy whose name was Dicky. He was so a naughty boy and bothered their family. He wouldn't listen to his mother's word and just kept doing mischief. His mother, Mrs. Bendall was always bothered by him. One day she told about his bad behavior to her friend, Mrs. Spears. Then she said that parents couldn't bring up their children without beating. She disagreed her friend's word but thought there were nothing to do except for beating. At the night she asked her husband to beat Dicky instead of her... 

I agreed with Mrs. Spears opinion roughly. However, I'd like to scold my children not by physically but by mentally. Too much beating would be cruelty. I thought it needed both of physically and mentally discipline to bring up my children. DIcky's parents had to do mentally one.

The School After a Long Time of Staying at Home

How long time has passed? For several hundred million years? Anyway, today I went to the school for the first time in a long time. I've already used to take online lectures, so actually, I think I can't live on the schedule before the self-imposed control term. It's very comfortable for me. However, more reports makes me much busier... Therefore it is sad not to be able to meet classmates (not friends). So, it will be not bad to return to previous life.

Book review (A Little Princess)

"I must be brave," she whispered. "A princess is always brave, so I must be, too. But it's not easy." (pp. 28~29)

Sara Crewe was a daughter of a rich man. She began to live and study in Miss Minchin's Schools for Girls. She was a clever, kind and brave girl and most of girls loved her. She lived there like a princess. However, on her eleventh birthday, many bad news came to her and her life have changed to poor...

I have read it before in Japanese. The brave and pride of Sara and the kindness of her friends always move me. If I were Sara, I would yielded to pressure and be depressed. She has strong heart.
