BOOK REVIEW29

Once upon a time, there was a little old woman and a little old man. They lived by themselves in a little old house. They had no little boys and no little girls. One day, the little old woman said to the little old man, "I shall make a little boy out of gingerbread. I shall make his eyes from two fat currants. I shall make his nose and mouth from bits of lemon peel. I shall make his coat from suger."

I read "The Gingerbread Man" today. One day a old woman wanted to eat the giggerbread man so she baked it. When it baked, it run away from the oven. She chase after it but she couldn't catch it. After that some kinds of animals chase it but they couldn't catch it. But there is a river and it couldn't across the river. The fox said it ride his back and across the river. Then the fox said it come his nose and the fox ate it!!!
