 Reaction to The Tale of Peter Rabitt

I. Summary
The story I chose is The Tale of Peter Rabitt. The story is written by Beatrix Potter. I will react to this story. One day, Peter play with his sisters. Their mother bans they from entering in Mr.McGregor's garden. But he entered McGregor's farm and McGregor found him eating vegetables. McGregor got angry and chased him.


II. Reaction
1.Character
Peter : the protagonist
Mr. McGregor : he has a garden and grow vegetables

2. Tone
When Peter sneaks McGregor's garden and eats vegetables, speaker talks slowly and calmly. While when he is escaping McGregor, speaker talks quickly and steps up tempo.


3. Denoument
 He managed to succeed in escaping but he lost his blue new jacket and shoes.

III. General Opinion
To break rule is a bad action. His case is to break to promise his mother to not enter McGregor's garden. I think, maybe, this story said if you do bad you will get a retribution.

I. Summary
    The short-short story I chose to summarize is " Live and Work ".  This is story ; father work hard for his wife and his son in almost everyday. He got a good job as a senior supervisor which paid handsomely. Then he could provide his familiy with life's little luxuries like nice clothing, fine food and vacation abroad and buy a beautiful condominium overlooking the coast of Singapore. But he died, thanks to it his hard work.

II. Reaction

1. Charater
    This story has three characters. The leading part is father. Father is a hardworking man who delivered bread. Another character is his wife and his three children.  

2. Theme
    I think this story's theme is not only working hard but spending with familiy.

III. General Opinion
    This story shows about not only this hardworking father but a man living for working. I think you can get a mind to do due to spending with your familiy, your friends and your goyfriend or girlfriend. Because it is important to spend with them, too.
