Rich in Family
Written by Linda Greenlaw
Rich could have lots of different means for people. Usually people see it as wealthy. However, in this paragraph the author feels love in the other way. Her mom is a great person who always has a positive view of everything. Like what she always told to author and the other 3 her children, life is good because they have the best father in the world. And the most important her mom did is giving a love unit to her family.
Simply Wonderful
Written by Daniel Rodriguez
In this article, the author’s mom is a simple person who worked in a factory with a sewing machine. And childhood life of Daniel’s is simply also. Why did I use that much simple? Because the purpose that lead author to write this entire essay is to explain the importance of simple. Since the author’s parents were immigrate to the State everything for them was new. Therefore, the life for her entire was hard. The mom didn’t face down to those problems. She managed and supported her family’s life simply.
My Opinion
After I went through these two paragraphs, they give me lots of new ideas for life. First, I know “rich” is not only based on asset; however, it could be something invisible. For example, like love, or some spiritual touch from soul. Second, I found a common with the second mom which “simple” is good.

The Lennon Companion 170 - 248
This book was written with people who know about John Lennon by author. First, it shows John and Yoko's interview that is famous. They talked his thought about war and peace. He had been appealing violence (war) is wrong with his wife. His a lot of songs have relation to his childhood. The interview had such a his background. Then he met Yoko so that he tried to love somebody and appeal peace.
Next expression of this book is his couple solo albums that are criticized by people. After the end of the Beatles, the members released their solo albums. John Lennon and Paul MacCartney have been compared as definitely two different types of great song writers. At the first time of their solo activities, John and Paul fought each other because of one reason that is related to Yoko. His first album 'imagine' showed his first expression of peace. This song, everyone knows, is still remarkable in the world. After released this album, he and she energetically campaigned against Vietnam War. Then FBI watched their activity against the war. They were criticized by people who agreed with the war. However a lot of young people followed him because he was charisma and his massage affected to the world so that American government was afraid of him. Then John and Yoko were exiled from the United States. But they stayed there. He had stopped to release albums for five years because he had been a house husband. However he released his last album ' Double Fantasy' that shows love he thinks. Sadly, he was killed by his wild fan. It is really wrong that murders become famous because they kill famous person.
At the end of this book, author says his biography and the Beatles life. His massages that appeal to us are shown by this book.
Opinion
I am done to read this book finally. and it was hard to read and summarize. However this book shows his life that is interesting for me. His life is great and wonderful. As a member of the most famous group in the world, he had been appealing peace. He though love can change the world. His interesing word is I'm not hero but you are hero which means you should do something by yourself. His massages are still alive and yesterday was the anniversary of his death. I think if each person faces and hopes seriously, this world will be better. He taught me a lot of things.

Harry Potter 8 Gabriella
page137-page151
Today was a terrible day for Harry! He went into the dungeon which he had been there before. There were many people there. They all wore plum-colored robes. Cornelius Fudge who was the Minister of Magic sat in the middle of them. At first, he asked Harry some questions and created difficulties for Harry. And then the only one who can saved Harry appore in the dungeon. He was Dumbledore. Harry explained why he had to use magic before his brother's eyes. And he had explained that the dark load had come back, but Cornelius didn't believe him. He thought it was total wrong! And Dumbledore helped Harry, but there was no good reason. That maked Harry pretty angry, but he could do nothing. But Dumbledore said that the things which happened to Harry was just a little things, why it has already become the pracitice to hold a full criminal trial to deal with a simple matter of underage magic. And that made Cornelius feel very uncomfortable. Finally, Harry survived I think.

update:Gossip Girl
This is a new book. It was still talking about high school's life. I read from page1-page30.The main characters in this book are Serena--"S",Blair--"B",Nate,Chuck and Dan. The story was based on the young teenagers growing up on New York's Upper East Side who attend elite academic institutions while dealing with sex, drugs, and other teenage issues. I watched this TV show every week. It just showed us the lifestyle they had and the effect they got.
There was a girl which called Gossip Girl ran a blog about her fellow the upper east siders. She knew every single secret among them,but no one knew about her. At Blair's Party, everyone got the message from Gossip girl she said that Serena was appeared at central station. Serena is Blair's best friend who left without saying last quarter. But now she was appeared, everyone was talking about her, they try to guess what will happened next. When Blair was enjoy with her boyfriend Nate, she heard someone was calling her that Serena was coming. Blair was very angry with Serena because of her left. She represented very unfriendly that everyone can see it. So Serena felt it and left right away. Everyone was blabbing about it, why she left and why she was back. Serena and Blair was study at the same school. S try to act as B's best friend as usual, but B didn't think so. She already had some new friend instead of S. S wanted to have a conversation with B, she wanted their friendship back. There had too many secret between them, it's not like that easy to made it back. At the same time, Nate went to see S, he loved her. But S told him, he was her best friend's boyfriend, she didn't want anything happened to hurt her best friend. But we know things can't be that easy,no secret for gossip girl. B will know it sooner or later.
First I watched that Tv show, I like it. So I bought this book. There had something different between the book and show no all of them. I really want to know who is that mysterious girl. Why she can know everything about those people. How she can send the message to everyone.
Is she a student who study with them or what else. I am very intersented about her. Also I am interested in what's kind of life the upper east side people had. Was it good or bad. What's going to happened to S and B? Will they back together or they become enemy?You know you love me ,X.O.X.O Gossip girl.

Understanding September 11th
Understanding September 11th by Mitch Frank 60-130
-Some people in the Middle East resent America because of oil. They think America is an outside invader. The first exploded their resentment in Iran. The shah accepted American could business in Iran and tried to bring western ideas. However, he refused to bring democracy to his government because he didn’t want to lose power. Therefore, Iranian students blamed American for keeping the shah in power for a long time. They took fifty-took Americans hostage. They kept hostages for more than a year. At that time, they almost every day burnt American flags. Because of Taliban, America attacked Afghanistan after on 9/11. When Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, America helped Afghanistan because America doesn’t want oil country Afghanistan become another Russian province. The Taliban were strict Islamist Afghans. The Taliban was started a small village in southern Afghanistan. They disregard woman. All women were forbidden to work except work in hospital. They were strict to everything such as TV was forbidden, music was forbidden and so on. Osma Bin Laden an important ally to the Taliban. After America attacked, many of the Taliban were captured. But, still many Taliban fled into the mountains and hills. Islamists forbid eating port of drink alcohol, and women with men in public places. Osma Bin Laden is the most infamous terrorist of all time. After September 11th, many American’s patriotism becomes strong.
Al Qaeda means “the base” in Arabic. Taliban means “students of Islam”, the militantly Islamist group that ruled Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001.
-I read all pages. From this book, I realized many things. This book includes detail information about terrorist, Islam and so on. I know Afghanistan involved september attack newly. I don't understand why Islam women are treated that way by man. I'm not sure current situation, but according to this book Islam women can't eat with man, stay with man and so on. It's so unfair. I'm curious current situation. Before I read this book, I didn't know about Taliban and Al Qaeda very well. This book gave me a lot of information about Taliban and Al Qaeda. It's really useful book.

HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS
Pg169-201
In this part HP,Ron and Hermione had a very bad time to hide themselve in the Black's house.They kept one of the Death Eater inside and tried to get the information from him. Whenever that guy wakes up, HP strongly put his wand in front of that guy and force him to give HP the information about Voldermort, but he was so scared so he told them not to kill him and told some information that made HP,Ron and Hermione cant believe at him. HP argued with Ron and Hermione for a few day about the plan that they want to raid inside of the minister of Magic. And one of that day,they got the very shock news that the new principal of the Hogwart school now will be Snape who used to be the Dart-Art teacher when Mr. Dumbledore alive. HP,Ron and Hermione got this news and they really care about the students and the teachers who are teaching and studying in Hogwart school right now.Voldermort now controls everything from Minister of Magic to the school.HP,Ron and Hermione made up the plan that they will raid into the minister of magic to find out the information about everything happen.Ron said that the "Invisible Cloak" now is too small for 3 of them so they need to make and bring some potion with them to make them change to the people who work in the minister.As the plan going,HP had to change to a big guy and acts like that guy which made him had nervous a few time.
In my opion, HP has to do to much stuff and he has to found out what is true about Mr.Dumbledore childhood.He heard too much thing about Dumbledore,one side said that Dumbledore is a very talent kid and very succeed in his life before he died,another side said that he has a very poor and convict so that he inherit the convict mind from his sister.HP got so confused about what he need to know,he want to find out what is the real happen to him and to Dumbledore.He still confused about why Dumbledore gave him the quidditch ball after all.Ron and Hermione cant ignore HP's plan even they get scared of that plan because they are very close and best friends that HP only has.I think the story get more and more exciting and challenging when everybody get closer and closer to help HP,and Voldermort tries to control everything as he can.I really like HP because of its challenge.

Cross- James Patterson P.84-94
In the least rescue action, Cross’s partner- Ned was shot and his situation didn’t look good. There were also ten team members who where hurt or dead in this heroin factory. When Cross arrived home, he was terribly tired. Because of his attending this rescue action that was such a dangerous work, his foster mother-Nana seemed to mad at him and refused to look after his children. Finally she left.
In the other part of the story, it was about a poor little boy’s childhood who was the hit man- Michael Sullivan. He was abused by his father who was a pedphilia.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s surprised me! Sullivan was not born to hit man. I thought many bad guys come from their background. It’s why family education is so important.

A Taste for Life
Written by Bobby Flay
Bobby’s mom Dorothy Flay is a very positive person. She always show her support to not only her own family, but also those people who live around her. Especially, the author who was a student with very bad attitudes, her mom shows even more love to change him. A good story which the author shows us in this article is a great example. The author was escape from class as usual. His mom received phone call from school again, she finally got mad with him. She went down the place where the author was usually hanged out. She just went there grab him but did nothing. The author became a chef mostly because of his mom. The first cooking experience he ever could remember was at his mom’s kitchen. The mom’s helped a lot for his son, Bobby Flay, to achieve his life goal.
Also Known as “Mom”
Written by Jamie-Lynn Siegler
Everyone should have several special names to describe their moms. Like what author says “Advice, cheering up, a good shopping day, a nice lunch” could all be her mom’s names. The author’s mom shows her supports on her daughter are easy to see. When Jamie, at the year of her seventh year, said she wanted to be an actress. Her mom didn’t take it as a child’s joke. She took it very seriously. After she achieved the goal and finally became an actress, her mom was proud and attended every show the author played. Also, her mom is a very positive person that she never complained about anything. Even though she got busy schedule very often, she still enjoy it and the best is she will let other people enjoy it, too.
My Opinion
After I went trough the two paragraphs above, I found one thing in common between those moms is they are all very positive people. The first mom has divorced, raised the boy by herself, at New York City. But she never gave up anything. The second mom is a busy person. However, she never complained about busy life, and finished everything perfect. Beside, those opinions, the most important thing I learned from these two articles is a sentence “throughout their lives, through those ups and downs, ins and outs.” I think this sentence is very nice, it carries a feel in it.

Opinion
I think this book it's much easlier to read. Thus, the words it's easier and the content of this book it's much more interesting. As I like reading book about love. Jane was sick on the way home, Bingley tried his best to find a helpful doctor. I think this is one of the way to show love. But something the impress me is what Elizabeth did to her sister Jane. Even though, Jane was taking good care by Bingley, she went back just to make sure everything goes fine. I really do want a sister like Elizabeth who can give me a good care of love.

The Old man and the Sea P65--127 by Bing
The old man will say ten our fathers and ten hail marys that he can catch the fish. Sometime even he doesn’t want kill the fish, he will kill the fish. Although it is unjust, he thought. But he will show the little boy what a man can do and what a man endures. Then he tired to catch the fish, he think if the fish are not tired, the fish must be very strange. As the sun set he remembered, to give himself more confidence, the time in the tavern at Casablanca. He won the game that night. People called him winner for a long time. Then an airplane passed overhead on its course to Miame and he watched its shadow scaring up the schools of flying fish. He was imagine what the feeling in the airplane, it mush be very strange. The old man unhooked the fish, re-baited the line with another sardine and tossed it over. I said the fish still no change, the boat is slower now. After he got fish he asked the fish “how do you feel?” he answered “I feel good.” In the truth he is not feeling good because the pain from the cord across his back had almost passed pain and gone into a dullness that he mistrusted. He tried rest a lot, the sky darked very early everyday. He was looking for how the fish change. The moon didn’t rise now until late and he had no way of judging the time. He tried to sleep; his right arm was asleep because his head had rested on it instead of a pillow. He did not dream of the lions but he dreamed that he was in the village on his bed and there was a other and he was very cold. After he weak up he could not see the fish’s jumps but only heard the breaking of the ocean and the heavy splash as he fell. He told himself again, if the little boy was here he would wet the coils of the line. Yes.. If the boy was here. Then he fishing again, after he jumped that his right hand had been in the water long enough he took it out and looked at it . And he thought pain doesn’t not matter to a man. Why was him not born with two good hands. He was eating all of it down to the tail. It has more nourishment than most fish. He fishing again, he felt tired, he can see some black spots in his eyes. Twicw, though, he had felt faint and dizzy and that had worried him. He plan say a hundred our fathers and a hundred hail marys. But he cant say them now. After three times he got a fish, It was a long big fish. The old man told himself said be calm and strong. He hope the fish kill him, he thought he never seen a greater, or more beautiful, or a calmer or more noble thing than that fish. He asked come on and kill him, he does care who kills who. After that, he told himself “clear up, clear up.” Twice more it was the same on the turns. He fishing again, and he got some fish, everytime after he got fish I will do a lot work. Then he saw a big fish, he planed to catch him, he though he needs a pencil for that how big is the fish. His head is not that clear. That fish is so big it was like a boat. He did not need a compass to tell him where southwest was. He only needed the feel of the trade wind and drawing of the sail. The old man soaked his hands in the salt water and tired to keep his head clear. Then he saw a shark, it was he first time saw shark. The shark was not an accident. He had come up from deep down in the water. When the shark coming to the old man, the old man’s head was clear and good. The old man hit the fish the old man saw shark’s mouth open and his strange eyes. When the shark getting close, the old man hit it with his blood mushed hands driving a good harpoon with all his strength. Shark wad killed by the old man. The old man told himself “But man is not made for defeat, A man can be destroyed but not defeated.” He was sorry that he killed the fish tough. He tried to keep himself happy. The old man thought he think too much, but he enjoyed killing the dentuso. Then the old man hoped the Galanos come on. One turned and under his skiff and the old man could feel the shake as he jerked and pulled on the fish. After the old man tried to kill him, the fish was run away. The old man wiped the blade of his knife and laid the oar. He wish he had a stone for the knife. He tried to keep himself thinking about nothing. He told himself he is tired. Then two sharks was coming to the old man. The old man let him hit the fish and then drove the knife on the oar down into his brain. The old man watched for him to come again but neither shark showed. He could not expect to kill them, he thought. The he cant be too far out now, he thought. He hopes no one has been worried. There is only the boy to worry, of course. He has all those prayers he promised if he caught the fish, he thought. But he is too tired now. Around ten clock he saw the city, he think the wind is his friend, and the great sea with his friend and hi enemies. And bed he thought. Finally he put the mast down and stood up. Then he is sleeping. The little found him and asked some coffee for the old man. The old man was very happy because he can tall to somebody now, not just talk to himself. The little boy wants fish with the old man in the future. The little boy is going to ask some drugstore for the old man’s hand. A lady ask a waiter “ what is that?’ “ Tiburon” the waiter said “ Eshark.” The lady said she didn’t know sharks had such handsome, beautifully formed tails. The old man was sleeping again. The little boy was sitting by him watching him. The old man was dreaming about the lions.
Opinion:
After I read this book, I understand a lot thing in our life. The old man who fishing in the sea for 84 days. He never worried about something or to be scared something. Everyone think he was a loser, but he proved he is a winner. We must keep our head clear every time in our life. No one alive for be defeated. We should believe we can do something, even we fail couple times, we still should have confidence, like the old man, he fishing all the time, he was never give up. In the future, I will never worry about some difficulty things. I will never give up, kind like study, sometimes I will have some problem, I will never give up and study hard. Because I believe myself. I can do everything I want to do. The faith is one of the cause for success. If you have faith, You will be winner, and impossible is nothing. The book “the old man and the old sea” is a very good book, the book tells me a lot sense. And a lot sentences in this book Is very great. I wrote some on my notebook already. Nice book.

The Lennon Companion 126 - 170
The story about the Beatles, especially John Lennon, goes to 1965~. He met Yoko Ono who broke up the Beatles. She was attractive for Lennon so that the author said about her carefully. She was an artist that published a book. The latest Lennon's lyrics were effected by Yoko Ono. Next the author explained Lennon's schooldays.For Lennon and McCartney, school was more important that home or Liverpool. His pictures in his childhood were creative. His creativity of writing songs are great, especially his lyrics, but when it was the first time to release their album , called please please me, Lennon didn't try to write lyrics cafelly like he didn't care about it. However, eventually, Lennon and MacCartney were trying to write great lyrics, because they were influenced by Bob Dylan who is their good friend.
The next topic of them goes to last three original albums. The Beatles, called white album, released. The author said thirty songs in white album are various. No one achieved to make such a great album in this year. Then Abbey Road and Let It Be released. He explained about these songs. He didn't explain their last LP, Let It Be, much more than Abbey Road. He said the last LP is not so variety and does not attempt large musical construction as Abbey Road.
Opinion
At that time, the Beatles were not good relationship each other. Therefore, they recorded on by theirthelves. Sadly, this book said Yoko Ono broke the Beatles up. I don't think so, because John Lennon may be not interested in the Beatles even if he didn't meet her anyway.
In my opinion, this book is little bit hard to read for me... Especially, vocaburaly is hard. I'll try to read this book completly, though about 60 pages left.

Harris an Me 75-100
Gary and Harris were walking on the farm. Gary followed him closely and bumped into him when Harris stopped. Harris said he couldn’t see him. Gary asked who he was. Suddenly, Harris shouted “LOOK OUT…” His eyes grew wide. Gary saw two huge wings came to his face and then Harris grabbed his hair and threw him down on his face out of the way. Harris rolled around. He tried to beat a thing what looks like a giant ball of dust and feather wings. The giant ball moved in the granary. Harris said “Damn you, Ernie…” At last, Gary knew that was a crazy rooster called Ernie. Harris told him Ernie could let people bleed in every fight, it usually came out when we can not see him. Gary thought the life came more interesting.
This is a really interesting short story in this book. Gary just came to the farm. He doesn’t know anything in there. At first, he kicked by a caw. And then, he was scared by a rooster. But he thinks there is more fun. I really like read the part which talks about the way Harris talks to him even some bad words.

Charlotte's Web written by E. B. White
chapter9-17 page55-137
Wilbur wondered at how Charlotte's web was made, and he tried to make web by his self being taught by Charlotte. Of course, he couldn't, and he gave up. Wilbur's anxiety of his death was getting bigger, and he asked to Charlotte who promised to save him how can she save him. She didn't tell everything, but she told that she was working about it seriously and persuaded him not to worry about it.A boy, Avery, tried to capture Charlotte when he saw her. As he trying, he broke the egg which had been given to Templeton by the goose. Because of the smell of the broken egg, he couldn't keep trying, then he ran away from the pig pen. Thus, the rotten egg saved Charlotte, but most of the inhabitant in the farm complained about the terrible smell which spread to all over the barn. One day, it was foggy, Charlotte's web was decorated with dozens of beads of water, and there was a massage in the center of the web neartly woven in block letters. It said "some pig". Lurvy and Mr. and Mrs. Zuckerman was surprised at it. Mr. Zuckerman told the minister about it. Soon after, the news spead all over the country, and a lot of visitors came to the Zuckerman's pigpen to see the unusual pig. Fern prefer the previous barn which she could be all alone with her friends to the present barn which there are too many people.When the visitors were getting bored of the letters, Charlotte changed the letters "some pig" into "terrific", and she asked Templeton to bring a magazine clipping from the dump to find new words.Fern's mother hoped Fern would go out and play with other children, instead of heading for the barn to sit and watch animals. She told about Fern's behavior to a doctor, but the doctor said that don't worry, and let her do as she wants.Wilbur, Charlotte, and templeton went to Fair. At the time, the truck which they ride on got trouble that the truck with no one started to roll downhill. The truck was stopprd by Mr. Arable, who is Fern's father.
I think Charlotte is a very smart and kind spider. She not only saved Wilbur's life but also remove his loneliness.But she always take care of Wilbur, so I worry about Wilbur after she would leave.

What a pity that this blog is going to be my last one. I liked reading this novel even though it was hard to read in my poor ability of reading. I heard posting novel was the first attempt for level 4
and it was actually helpful to me. I strongly support to do Blog whether in level 4 but also other levels and I believe that doing Blog makes us to improve our reading skill. Finally, I can return this novel that I have borrowed from library for almost a month and half.

While they were testing, George's grandma came and said give me that and she drank it. Suddenly she become smaller and smaller and smaller and disappered. His father was happy because he didnt like her. However, George didnt say anything. He just stood there.
This book is pretty funny. I have the same situation. I have a mean old grandma, too. My grandparents live with my parents, so I have to listen all the annoying words from my parents and also my grandma. Sometimes i wish she was gone, but sometimes she makes me laugh. I don;t actually want her away because she makes me happy sometimes. If she is gone I will feel sad like George did. I think it is kind of weird. Even though your grandparents treats you bad and annoys you, they still love you. If you hated your grandparents and wanted them to disappered so badly and suddenly disappers you will feel funny like George.

HIGH HEAT by Carl Deuker pages 193-235
This was the second Christmas in this new house, Shane's mother gave them lots of present. They were very happy in this Christmas. After that, Shane called Reese and asked him to play baseball together. When they finished, Shane told Reese that he was hit Reese on purpose last time. Reese still played with Shane after Shane told him the truth. One day after New Years's, Shane knew that a Korean boy will come and join their team. On the other hand, Shane played with Reese, but Reese thought that Shane cheat him, throw the easy balls to him.
At first, Shane's teammates laughed at the Korean boy who called Kim Seung.After they saw him to play, they didn't laugh as he played quite well. They had a game was against Eastgate and Eastgate thought Shane's team was worthless, but Shane's team won the game. On Thursday, they against Washington High School. After they won the game, Grandison talked to a man who is coach at University of Portland. The coach called Dave Wood and he wanted to know more about Shane. One day, Grandison asked Shane to his office and let Shane alked to coach Dravus. Coach Dravus said if Shane can keep his number high, maybe he can get the baseball scholarship. At that night, Shane explained to his mon that he might not get the scholarship. After that, he went to library with Marian. He found out that Reese was going to against O'Dea. Shane went and watched this game, but Reese felt very nervous so he didn't play well.
On Saturday, coach Dravus came to Shane's house and explained about the scholarship to Shane's mon.
opinion:
I found that this story is really interesting, it is hard to guess what's going on. Just like Shane told Reese that truth. I thought it was an exactly accident.I felt surprise at this fact. Also, I am glad that Shane played well and he might get the baseball scholarship. It is really good for Shane and his mother. Shane should do his best to keep the grade high and get the baseball scholarship. On the other hand, I like Reese because he still can be friend with Shane after he knew the truth. I felt sorry about Reese to play worse than before. I think he is such a good guy that he can forgave Shane. It will be so sad if he can't play as well as he did before. I hope Shane can help Reese because he also help himself to get out of the nightmare.
I can't wait to read the ending, and I hope it is a happy ending.

Understanding September 11th
Understanding September 11th by Mitch Frank 17-59
-On september 11th nineteen men killd more than thousand people. They were all terrorists from Middle Eastern nations and belonged to al Qaeda,led by a man named Osama bin Laden. Many terrorists lived in South Florida and some of them began taking lessons at local tlight school. Even terrorists were living in the U.S, U.S goverment didn't know that because they lived like american and their plan didn't need a lot of money and weapons. Terrorists don't believe they are doing anything wrong. Terrorism is ciolent acts seem random and senseless. Al Qaeda members believe God is on their side when they murder. Even though Osama bin Laden thanked Allah for the success of the attacks, most Muslims were horrified by what happened on September 11th. Islam is on of the world's lasgest religions. It was begun by the prophet Muhammad. Qur'an is the holy book of Islam. Muslims believe the God recited its words to Muhammad. It still occur like a war in the middle east because of religion.
-This book show nineteen people's face. Actually, they aren't look like horrible people. I can't understand why they are acting like that and what is benefit. Also, very curious how they believe their God so deeply. I was very surprised about their perfect plan. This book is interesting but, too much information. It is include not only about attack but also religion, country.

In the Forbidden Forest, chapter 15, Harry and his friends took 50 points because they were caugth to do suspicious activity las night. Harry, Hermione, and Neville are told to report to Hagrid that night for their detention in the Fobidden Forest. Malfoy was also given detention. In the Forbbiden Forest, they saw some traces of unicornblood on the ground and went into the Fobbiden Forest. Harry thought Voldemort was drinking unicorn blood to live longer until he stole Sorcerer's Stone to give an endless life.In these chapter, these stories is also very exciting because dragon and unicorn that are imaginary animals appeared. In addition, I knew the Forbbiden Forest surrounds severe darkness and something will happen soon there. Almost I knew Something to steal Sorcerer's Stone is Voldemort who is the lord of the dark magic, and he is going to take an endless life through sorcerer's Stone.
