Stories of Mermaids

Dad was in love with Coral, but he'd seen how sad she was on land. (p.46)
 This is a book in the Usborne Young Readers series. This is composed of three chapters about mermaids.
 My favorite story is in chapter 3. In the chapter, the main character is Coral. She loves living under the sea, but she has a secret wish. The wish is that she wants to dance on the land. She asked king to change her tail to legs. At first, he refused the hope, but finally, he gave her one week to live with legs. He used magical power and changed her tail to legs. Then she stood on the land and went to the dance hall. She met Dan and danced with him. She fell in love with him, so she wanted to be together with him more and more. However, she found she loves living under the sea more than on the land. After one week passed, king said "Legs or tail?" to her. What is her decision? Which choices does she choose? Also, what is Dan's opinion?

 I was attracted by the pictures in this book, because they are colorful and cute. If you have time, please read this book. You will be excited!

One Day

 
I read One Day, a book in the Cambridge English Readers series. In this book, 4 stories are included. It is a normal Friday evening.
 In the first story, the main character is Jason. He hopes to go to art school in the autumn and he has a girlfriend. One day, he was going to her house, but she called him about something. What is the phone call...?
 Each story in this book is different, but I could find something in the end. I learned that my life may change by small thing in normal life. I can't imagine what happens in the future, so it is important to do what I can do now.
 I recommend you read this book!
