The Gingerbread Man

 Once upon a time, an old woman and her husband lived alone in a little old house. The couple had no children, and being lonely, the woman decided to make a boy of gingerbread. She carefully mixed the batter, rolled out the dough, and cut out out a very nice gingerbread man. She added sugar icing for his hair, mouth, and clothes, and she used candy chips for buttons and eyes. What a fine looking gingerbread man he was! The old woman put him in the oven to bake. After he was fully done, she slowly opened the oven door. Up jumped the gingerbread man, and he ran out the door saying,"Run, run, as fast as you can! You can't catch me! I'm the Gingerbread Man! The old woman and the old man ran after him, but they could not catch him.

Egyptian Adventure

I read Egyptian Adventure today, and that's one of famous series, Oxford Reading Tree. Nadim's model book leads to an adventure in Ancient Egypt. Floopy is mistaken for an important dog, and the children have to help make a pyramid. Children go to ancient Egypt and they adventure there.
Today I read The Old Woman who lived in a shoe, a level 2 book in the Usborne First Reading series. It's written by Russell Punter,and a story about one old woman who lived in a shoe. It's no fun living in a shoe when you have as many as this old woman. She needs to find a bigger homeーand fast.

The bear's mouth

The bear's mouth I read a book, titled The Bear's Mouth, today. It is set in modern times. The story's purpose seems to teach the importance of the cooperation in the team. I introduce the story content. Some boys and girls try to get several flags in the forest and they are separated to some team. The winner is the first team to get more flags than any other team. The boys and girls in Green team are main characters in this story, and people in Red team are their enemy. There are many traps in the forest and the game's key is '' The bear's mouth.''
