'My parents died when I was a baby, you know, and for the last three years I've had to work for my food...' (p.4)      This time I read Anne of Green Gables. I think you may be know about this title in Japanese, 'Red hair Anne'. So I didn't realize that this is about it till I started to read. I had known about the Japanese title but I hadn't known about the story.      Anne is a girl who is talkative, energetic, and has red hair with freckles on the face. For the first time, Marilla Cuthbert and  Matthew wanted a boy to be adopted to help their farm named Green Gables, but there was Anne. After that, they experienced various thing. And gradually, Anne grow up through these experiences.      I really like Anne's personality because she has lots of emotions, like joy, anger, sadness, and comfort. If Anne were my one of friends, I'm sure I could be good friend with her.

"Joseph says the ghost is tall and he wears a black evening coat.' (p.2)      Today I am going to introduce the book named The Phantom of the Opera. Before I start to talk about this story, I have a question. Do you believe in ghost? My answer is No. I don't want to believe in ghost.      This story's place is the Opera House in Paris. The main character is Christine and the phantom of the Opera. Christine is young girl who is good at singing. And the phantom of the opera is loving her. He want to get her whatever he do. But Christine has a good friend of boy. The boy is also loving her. So it is a triangle love. But the phantom of the opera is so scared. He is willing to use any way to get her. However, the phantom of the opera is very sad person, and a lonely person. I could understand about him a little bit.      By the way, I have listened this movie's music. But I haven't seen the whole movie because I knew these songs through playing with brass band.

     This is a book about Christmas.  There are a lot of information about Christmas. For example, the Christmas songs, Christmas stories, Christmas food, and so on. I was excited because I really like Christmas. And there, We can know about the history of Christmas to read this book.      By the way, last Christmas, I went to Nagasaki to see some great things. I went to the China town. I have been to China town in Yokohama, so to be honest, I feel it was small. Then, I went to a sweets restaurant. there are great sweets and they are so good. Then, I stay at the hotel named Isrand Nagasaki. There are beautiful lights there, so I was moved to see them. I want to go there again.      So if you read this book, you may think about Chrismas time. I want to hear your good Christmas memory. Thank you.

"Mr Lorry,Lucie Manette and Miss Pross went by ship from Dover to Calais." (p.13)      Do you remember the name of Charles Dickens? We have already known about this author because we learned him last year's Eibungakushi.      By the way, this story is about history. The place of this story is two cities, Paris in France and London in the UK. The time of this story is just "French revolution". I have read the same period's story, "Les Miserables" last time but it iscompletely different. And this is also the story of triangle-related love. But the most important thing that this book want to tell us is Class difference. Usually, some book is written about lower class, but this book is not.

So I want to know about the real of Class Difference.      In my view, this book has a lot
