BR 1-10: Stories of WITCHES

“As soon as the witch made her promise, Kate jumped to her feet. She wasn’t a dog anymore.”

This book has three stories of witch. When you read this book, you can know how greedy witches are. Witches are greedy, so around people try to punish them. It is fun to read this because it is easy to understand flows of stories. When you do selfish behavior, around people are troubled by you. You can learn that from this book. I think there are kind witches somewhere, but there are spiteful witches in this book.

BR 1-09: The Goose that laid the Golden Eggs

"Tom lived in a small cottage with his wife Elena. They were very poor, but they had every thing they needed."

I think you know this story. This story is one of Aesop stories. This story tells you not to be too greedy. If you are too greedy, you will lose everything. At the end of this story, the goose is killed by Tom and Elena. I think it is not bad to try to be rich. However, when you are seduced by money, you can't see important things around you. When you feel you are greedy, I recommend you reading this.
