Summary Of "Hurry, Hurry, Mary Dear"

Situation: The book was written by N.M.Bodecker and it was illustrated by Erik Bleguad. The main character of this story is called Mary. Her husband, Danish, hates winter. So he did not help Mary do any housework. He just sat and asked Mary to do the all things. For instances: picking the apples, dilling the pickles, digging the turnips, smoking the hams, and etc.

Conflict: Because Danish was afraid of winter. So Mary had to do the all things reluctantly.

Outcome: Finally, Mary decided not to do the all things. She wanted to be herself and did not want to be controled by others. Therefore, she became independent.

Reation: At first glance, when I saw the cover and the title "Hurry, Hurry, Mary Dear" of this book, I think maybe it is an interesting story. After reading the story, I think that my feeling is right. It is really a good story. But I also learn a lesson fom it. In the story, the woman who is called Mary, I think she is so poor. In this modern society, gender discrimination still exists. But I think it is wrong. Women and men should be treated equally.

Reflection Of "The Missing Piece Meets the Big O"

I read the story before, and I think it is a cute story.

At first, the missing piece was too shy to be independent. But when the Big O told him something, he became active and tried to do by himself. Finally, he succeeded.

After reading the story again, I think that everything is possible. Even it is a difficult thing, but if you have the will, you will succeed. It is said that "Where there is a will, there is a way."
