The Merry Adventures of RobinHood by Howard Pyle Pages 54~89.

RobinHood cheated with the Sheriff 3 times already, and this is time he wanted to the Sheriff to pay money kindly for them. That’s a big challenge to RobinHood because Sheriff became very carefully to face everything. However RobinHood is not a stupid person, he disguised as a butcher and sold meat in the market. Not only his meat price was cheaper than other butchers but also he could speak many jokes and made customers happy. So his meat sold out very soon. So other butchers invited him to Sheriff’s party also introduced for Sheriff. When RobinHood met with Sheriff who didn’t recognize he is RobinHood. RobinHood knew that then told Sheriff he had many animals to sell but he needed cash so sold them very cheap. Of course Sheriff wanted to deal in with RobinHood. After this day the Sheriff brought the money and followed with RobinHood. RobinHood also prepared a party to welcome Sheriff but after party everything was changed. RobinHood said to Sheriff we gave you merry so please paid your billing. Sheriff suddenly found he was cheated again if he didn’t want to pay, he couldn’t run out the forest. Finally he still paid the money total is 300 pounds. RobinHood got his target and made his brothers in forest happy.


When I read this part I felt very funny because how come he could think this good idea. Although this is not a good way to get his target, but this is a novel. I was happy to read this book.

This is a very common way to cheat someone: use that person's greed! If someone think that they are going to make a lot of money easily and quickly, they are more likely to make stupid decisions. Robin knows that.

Your summary is a little too long, and your reaction paragraph is a little too short! Can you reverse that?
