And I like 'A White Heron' and 'Luck'.
'A White Heron' had main character.
Her name was Sylvia.She was shy girl.
She knew nest of heron,But she didn't tell this for young man.I think her choice was good because if she tell that, the heron would be killed.
'Luck' is interesting story also.
Scoresby was fool man. But he was respected from other people because of luck.
I want to have luck and go well like him. (
