She is not a good girl. She is always doing naughty things and always scolded by her parents. One day, Goldilocks was told by her mother "Don't climb up the tree. There are bears inside the tree." Goldilocks is naughty, so she got to want to climb up the tree to hear that. She went to a forest, but there were no bears. Then, she found a cute cottage. She wanted to step into it, so she knocked the door. But she couldn't hear any response. Finally, she opened the door and looked around inside of the house. She found some sofas, meals, beds and so on. She tried many of them and some of them were broken by her, but she didn't care of that so much.

People have made it hard for tigers to live. Now people must help tigers. (p. 30) This week, I read “Amazing Tigers! ”. You can see many pictures of tigers in this book. Through reading this book, you can learn how tigers hunt or how and where they live. Do you know why tigers have stripes? And did you know that each tiger has each stripes, so no two tigers have the same stripes? If you are interested in these two questions, you should read this book! Also, I was a little shocked to know that people's cutting down trees makes it hard for tigers to live. As people need place to live, tigers also need place where they can live safely.  Anyway, I think this book is interesting for everyone. Thomson L. Sarah. (2004). Amazing Tigers !
