One of my friends in US recommended reading this book just after she had read it. Then I started reading it at last summer. It took long time to finish the book because I took a rest after finishing the part one and read other books. But I finished it about a half month ago. Some parts of the book are difficult to get imagines for me because of difficult words or backgrounds of the story. But I could read the last fifty pages in two days. The reasons why are that I might be getting familiar with the style of statements and a climax is usually the most fun part of a book.
The theme of the book might be the inside of hearts of people who lived a society that most white people hate black people. But why a person don't like others and sometimes treats them badly beyond his/her common sense is also one of themes of the book, I think. The author may try to show us these kinds of problems using children's eyes.
I also recommend reading this book as well as my friend. And think about the relationship with others.
There is no doubt that the novel received Pulitzer prize.
The book appeared 1960 and turned into film later.

The story doesn't have reality as usual. And it makes the story funny and interesting for readers. But the last part of the story will warm your heart. You may think about saving nature and animals.

A Happy New Year.
I was late to get here because I was so busy from Jan 1st in this year.
It wasn't good feeling being busy on the New Year holidays.
But it might be good for me because it was a task that I could do at home.
Actually I'm working at a company's office now, and I'm going to change my working style into working at home.
This is one of my New Year resolutions.

Did you make your New Year resolutions?
If you made them, then write down them and tell other person them.
For your resolutions coming true thinking them is not enough.
Writing down them is better. But telling someone them is much better.

Keep this in your mind.
This is one of theories for success.

Have good year and happy reading!

Happy Christmas

I got a Christmas card tonight. When I got a cashier in Starbucks at a station, a girl at cashier gave it to me.
The card itself may be official one. But the inside of it was full of warm handwriting messages from store stuffs, they may call them "partners".
It was a surprising Christmas present for me. And it made me happy even if the reason for the card was I'm a frequent gust. In fact I was thinking there will be nothing about Christmas for me this year after seventeen hours hard working.
I'll show you one of messages because it was written in English:
Every Refil you ask, every partner will have one big heart warming moment that comes from your love to us.

I usually ask refill because it cost only 100 yen. So I visits the cashier more than once at every visit to store.

Now I can say,
Happy Christmas to every you!
