 I read the book whose title is "The Musicians of Bremen."
Once upon a time, there was a very mean man. He was mean to his donkey, his dog, his cat and his rooster.  He made them carry heavy pack and didn't give them enough food.  One day, he told that he would put the rooster in the pot and eat it for lunch the following day.  The rooster crowed as hard as it could in the evening.  Then, the donkey, the dog and the cat came there.  They listened to the rooster's story, and they planed out an escape.  They intended to go to Bremen and join the town band.  They set off at once and walked until they came to a deep, dark forest.  They found a house.  There were foods, drinks and robbers.  They were very hungry, so they burst into the room.  The  robbers were very surprised and escaped from the house.  The donkey, the dog, the cat and the rooster ate all food and then they slept.  The robbers went back to the house to identify who surprised them.  But the inside of the house was so dark that they couldn't see well.  So, they were surprised at the cat, the dog, the donkey and the rooster.  And the robbers thought that they were monsters.  So, the robbers were scared and they never went back the house.  The cat, the dog the donkey and the rooster liked the house so much they stayed there for the rest of their lives.

 I read the book for the first time, but this book appeared to be famous as a children's story.  The team play of the cat,  the dog, the donkey and the rooster is great.  I think whenever we are hungry, we can do anything.

    I read the book "Stories of fairies".
    First story about the tooth fairy,Crystal. She had passed her final test at the tooth fairy training school. She could turn children's baby teeth into money. Jet, Crystal's lazy classmate, had failed all her tests. She would never be a tooth fairy. She grumbled, and exchanged the wand of Crystal to one of her while Crystal didn't find it. Crystal arrived at her first customer, Beth. At once, she tried to bewitch Beth's tooth into new coin, but she couldn't. She was crying, then Beth woke up. Beth was a bit surprised, but she tried to help Crystal. Crystal and Beth went to Fairyland. When they went to the Fantastic Fairy Store, the shopkeeper taught that the wand which Crystal held was Jet's wand. So,they tried to go to Jet's house. When they arrived there, Jet ate a huge pile of cream  cakes which magic up with Crystal's wand. Crystal was angry and she tried to take it, but Jet bewitched Crysstal's feet into stone. So, Beth took Crystal's wand from a branch above Jet's head. Jet tried to fly up and grab the wand back. But she had eaten so much, she couldn't get off the ground. Crystal and Beth could get Crystal'swand.In a flash, Beth was back in bed. She looked at under her pillow. Her tooth exchanged not a coin but the small dress.
    I thought that Jet was a very bad fairy. Robbing other people of other people's things is the worst. I wanted Jet to do her best until she could pass final tests. Effort is very important.   

I read the book "The Story of chocolate".

    A thousand years ago, chocolate was a big secret. Only a few people drank it and nobody ate it.
At first, monkeys sucked out the sweet pulp, and they spat out the bitter  beans.
One day, a farmer copied the behavior of monkeys. The  pulp  was  sweep  and the beans was tasteless.
So, the beans gathered. But then, some villagers noticed a delicious smell, drifting up from a pile of rotting beans.
Over the next few months, the farmers discovered a way to capture this smell by turning the beans into a drink.
They called their new drink chocol haa. It tasted very bitter, but they liked it. Cocoa beans became so valueable.
    Hundreds of years later, a group of merchants arrived in the village to find exotic goods for their emperor.
So, the villager taught chocol haa. The emperor became to like it. In 1519, a Spanish explorer set out with an army to fight. After many battles, the emperor wanted to make peace. So, he gave a Spanish explorer chocolate.
The rumor og chocolate spread in Spanish. Chocolate was so expensive that only rich Europeans bought the drink.
    After, the inventors came up with the steam engine, so chocolate machines  were  made. 
So, chocolate spread many people. In1847, a man invented the world's first chocolate bar. Many people improved chocolate, chocolate is loved all over the world.

I don't know how chocolate spread until I read this book. And, I'm surprised that people ate chocolate since a long time ago. If you want to know about chocolate, you should read this book. And, I want to read this book to people who  like chocolate.
