Story 1: A Very Special Party

I like this story because the story is about a mother who's willing to be separated from her son, so
that her son didn't get sick too like her, and so that her son can have a happy life with a new
family. Mother's love is unbeatable.

Story 2: Christmas Gifts

I like this story because the story is about a married couple that tried to give gifts to each other
even though they don't have any money to buy something so they decided to sold an item that's
valuable to them. Even though, in the end, they can't immediately use the gift they've got.

Story 3: The Telephone Call

I like this story because the story is about a three-years-old girl who helped her mother that fell
down on the floor with her eyes closed while nobody was home that day aside them. She helped
her mother by pushed some numbers on the telephone like her father did while he was home, he
called the doctor to come and check his wife conditions, but this little girl called a random person.
Fortunately, this person is kind and he came to this little girl's house with a doctor.

Story 4: What's in the Back Seat?

I don't like this story because the story is about a mother who stubbornly left her baby alone in
the car, and the car key was still in the car. There's also a bad person that take away someone's
car because he didn't want to walk in a cold day.

Story 5: A Day Trip to Mexico

I don't like this story because the main person in the story is a stubborn and careless boy.

Story 6: Young Love

I like this story because that's life. We shouldn't dwell on the past just because we're separated
from the person we love. We have to move forward, whether with or without that person. Life
goes on.

Story 7: Man's Best Friend

I like this story because the story is about a dog that so sad. The dog didn't want to get up or eat,
and just waited for its friend by the door because its friend was in the hospital. Friendship can be
built with any living creature.

Story 8: A Man and Many Wolves

I don't like this story because the story is about some bad men that told terrible stories about
wolves.They said that wolves like to kill and eat people or large animals. That stories about
wolves were not true. Wolves don't eat people or large animals.

Story 9: Ben and Jerry's

I like this story because the story is about two people that were good friends in high school
started an ice-cream shop together. They still managed their business togther even though there
were times when they actually lost money because they mismanaged their business. Several
years passed, and they were selling ice cream all over the United States, and other countries.
They aren't just big businessmen, but they also give work to lots of poor people, and every year
their company gave away 7.5% of their money to help children and sick people in the United
States and in the other countries.

Story 10: Red a Book—or Go to Jail!

I like this story because the story is about a man who has been to jail many times. However, this
time it was different because he was given two choices; read books with a professor at a high
school or go to jail again. He chose to read books. Several weeks passed, and he chose to stay
and study in that high school. Now, he's a god student, and a good man. Bad people can change,
if they were given a choice to be a better person, and there's someone to guide them.

Story 11: Who Took the Money?

I don't like this story because the story is about a man who always works harder for his family
and put some his money on the bank, but when he was old, he became greedy and can't decide
what he must do with all his money. Until all his money was eaten by mice because he kept it in
a hole. There's nothing left.
