"Billy chopped down the tree. There, in the
trunk sat...a golden goose! Billy picked it up and set off for home." (p.
26)
Billy is a woodcutter. He was not strong or
handsome. But, he was very kind boy. He has two brothers. Ronald was strong.
Donald was handsome. One day, his brothers chopped tree and get lunch. When
they ate, a little old man asked them. "Please can you spare some
food?" They refuse his ask. The little old man shook his head and
vanished. The next day, Ronald itched all over. Donald became purple! So Billy
went instead. At lunchtime, he sat down to eat. The little old man popped up
again, and asked him. Billy shared his lunch willingly. The old man told Billy
that you chop down this tree and see what happens. Billy did it. He got a
golden goose.
I think that kindness is very important to
live in a society. This is satirical story. To kind to other people is very good
behavior. When I see a person who is in trouble, I want to help. I choose this
book, because this book's cover was cute and funny. But, after I read this
book, I think this book is very thoughtful story. Billy's brothers didn't kind
to the little old man. Therefore, they couldn't get happiness. Billy behaved
kindly to the little old man. He got happiness! Nice action to attract good
things like Billy.
