SAMURAI KIDS summary

They arrived at the village. They walked around the market and they heard an interesting story from an old woman. “Their teacher was a goblin and could fly and he was dead long time ago”. After that they want to swords with and received a sword that their teacher ordered. Then they went back to the school safely. When they reached the school, they thought that their teacher and friends would say” welcome home, how was your trip” but in fact, they said nothing to Niya and Yoshi. So they got angry. At night, Niya tried to find out if his teacher was a goblin and so he asked the teacher but of course, he said he was not a goblin.

John Grisham The Firm


I have started to read my next book called The Firm by John Grisham. Apparently this book is about a man called Mitchell who is very intellegent. He graduated his law practice in Havard. After he graduated university, he had a lot of job offers from famous and large firms. One day someone knocked on his front door. Mitchell opened the door and saw three men in neat suits. They introduced themselves. They were from a firm which is specialised in tax areas in Memphis. The three men were at Mitch's house to offer him a job. Mitch asked them some questions about firm and finally he asked them about the annual profit. He freaked out when he heard the numbers. It was a lot more than what the other firms offered. They said they would pay him at least seventy grands per year, they would loan him money to buy house and they would lease them a BMW. Mitchell thought that his dream was finally coming true.

TOO COOL-------------SOCCER SUPERSTAR(2)

I got 3 questiones about this book,each week answer one quesetion...

frist question: how you prethought your sentation went?
A: after day.one other boy (i forget name,so i make a name at here...jok),he very like soccer too,but he very arrogant,one day he saw Bob play soccer,he think Bob play soccer very bad,so he sade:"oh~look this boy,what is he doing?play soccer?oh no this so bad.hahahahahahha!!!"Bob very angry..............................
next time.......
When Niya recovered his consciousness, Yoshi’s arm was broken. When he helped Niya, he slipped. But they continued to walk. Yoshi started to talk about his secret. When Yoshi was young, he was in a wrestling match with his friend and he killed the friend accidentally. He started cry. So Niya tried to sooth him.

I thought why Yoshi wasn’t arrested. He should have gone to jail even it was accident or is he an escaped prisoner? I thought.

2nd book

hey people! i'm going to talk about my 2nd book called Inuyasha. It's an anime manga book and it's about adventure that's telling about a girl named Kagome and shes from Japan. She was sent to this massive hole where she has her karate practise. It's located behind the temple and it's really dark. It has really strong power and I can't be bothered to write them down but when she was sent to this weird place, it looks like a small town. She met lots of new friend especiall Inuyasha, Inuyasha is one of half monster man but in reality he's a sweet guy.

Few days later, the Niya’s father gave him his old sword. Then he learnt that to be a real SAMURAI, he needs not only strong body but also neatness. One day the teacher told Niya and his friend Yoshi to go to the village and collect the equipment before the sunset, so they had to walk to the village. It was very long way, about 10 Km. It was difficult for them to get to village before the sunset because Niya does not have one leg and Yoshi has only one arm.
They saw a wolf on the way to the way to the village and they were worried because before they left for village, the teacher told them a story that wolf is a shape shifter and could kill you. They were scared of the wolf. After that there was an earthquake. Niya overbalanced and fell off the mountain. He lost his consciousness.

I have experienced like this story when I was in Japan. I was walking in the forest and there were a lot of graves along the path. I was very scared of ghost. I was very frightened. My story is not funny but I understand their feeling.

World Football Challenge

hey everyone. i want to talk about my 1st book World Football Challenge. This book is a story about a guy named Les Murray. He's a pleyer that have the oppurtunity to work up the game ladder of the world's most popular game. Les was born in Sydney, Australia. In soccer his favorite team was AC Milan. He was a really good soccer player when he was young. He went training almost everyday. His soccer club won almost every single game on the season. He believes that soccer is the best sport in the world by watching and concentrating on every single game that he had, he understands the drills, the skills and the rules of soccer. When he was around 27-28 yeas old, he decided to become a junior soccer couch in Sydney, He own a soccer club but I dont know what is it called. Anyway, he's still alive now and in this book he has written all the results about all FIFA WORLD CUP, UEFA LEAGUE, and the ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE. I was suprised that Indonesia, my country was one of the best team in the 1980's. I enjoy this book very much, it tells me how each country had change in positive and negative way. That's about it hope you ejoy.

Tennis Skill


The book I have been reading was very interesting; it was mostly skillful and it also teach the basic skill. I have been chosen this book because I have been playing tennis before. This book is about target areas, strategy, coordination, presure, and footwork, also the skills from groundstroke, volleys, serves and lobs to developing a trategy for doubles.
After I read this book, I felt this book is easy to follow, step by step, because of the photographs and diagrams accompany clear instruction, including important information on grip. Also there is information like body position, stroke etc.

i nearly finished to read the doctor who feast of drowned

i have nearly finished to read this book. it took me to read the 3/4 of book a month and it means the book was not interesting as i thought when i bought this book. but i will start to write my characters and summary.

i want to introduce the characters of this book. the characters are rose, doctor and mickey that they want to solve the mistary of the drowned ghost ship.

i am going to write breif summary of this book. The brother of Rose's friend Keisha dies when his ship sinks. His ghost came to rose , and the Doctor, Rose and Mickey decide to save him from the 'Feast of the Drowned'.

i didnt enjoy reading this book although this book is about adventure and mystery book which is my favourite type of book. this is becasue the story line of this book is really boring and contents of the book is nearly same as other books that is adveture and mystery book.

Sir Edmund Hillary


The book I have been reading was very interesting; it was mostly adventure and it also about group of people life. I have been chosen this book because I have been read the book name Touching The Void, which was the same kind of book. The book was most about the guys name Sir Edmund Hillary. He was dream that one day he would have a chance to climb Mt Everest which was one of the hardest mountain to climb.

Most people have been there and never come back. From the start of the book they have been talk about the dead zone of Mt Everest. The dead zone was the higher part of the mountain that has a very thin air to fill your lung. There were two mountaineers that have been trying to climb before Sir Edmund. They have take some oxygen equipments with them, but no one have ever try to use them and don’t know if it going to work on that height. This book was very interesting to me and I also enjoy reading it.

My oppinion about blogging

Hi I am going to talk about some of the stuff that I felt while using blog that my ESL class created. Usually in English class you expect to write, read or talk. Instead of doing all that my class created a blog called 2 Kool Readers. On the blog my friends and I posted some chapter summaries of the books that we chose to read.

Second good thing about blogging was that we could share informations, not by speaking but posting or writng. I was able to share everything that I wanted to share because I didn't get distracted or interfered by someone much.

Blogging was a special experience to me and in the future we should develop our blog so we could share our thoughts with every people in the world.

SAMURAI KIDS

I read ten pages of the book called SAMURAI KIDS. Main character is the one legged Samurai kid and his name is Niya. He wanted to enroll in Samurai school but school refused it. Three years later, the school let him enroll in the school because he became strong enough to practice. He thinks a white crane is his spirit totem because when crane sleeps, it slowly tucks one leg up under its body and it looks like him. He has friends who have also physical handicap like Niya. Their school’s name is Cockroach because it is very strong but they do not like the name. Their teacher decided to join the Samurai competition they were unwilling to join it because they are tired to being laughed at by everyone else.

I predict that they will join the competition and defeat usual people.

They are trying to be stronger than usual students. I think this book encourage handicap people in the world.

Mao's Last Dancer




Hi All,


I couldn't wait till our next class to tell you about the great book I read over the break called Mao's Last Dancer. It's a story about a peasant boy's journey from his village in China to be one of the most famous dancers in the world - imagine, being the one chosen from over a billion people in China to given the opportunity to learn to dance and change your life!


He becomes a ballet dancer and is part of the Beijing Dance Academy. I got the feeling that he wasn't the most gifted dancer but with hard work, determination and respect for himself and his teachers and family, he became a sensation. I'm looking forward to telling you more in our book chat session next week.
If you are curious, click on the link below for some more info.
