Superdog

"I wonder if Floppy could do some of the things we saw on television," said Chip. (p.5)

I read "Superdog".

Floppy hates it when the children want him to be Dog of the Year. But in a magic adventure he becomes a big hero.

When I read this book, I was painful and excited. It's because he could be hero in the big city, but he was forced to do training by children. I felt sorry for him.

Shirley Homes and the Lithuanian Case

Shirley Homes is a private investigator. She is clever with computers, and knows London like the back of her hand. She laughs when people say, 'Was Sherlock Holmes your grandfather?' Sherlock Holmes, of course, was not a real person, but, like Sherlock, Shirley has good eyes, and good ears. And she knows the right questions to ask.
And in the Lithuanian Case, the right questions are important. Because Shirley must find a missing person-Carrie Williams, aged fifteen. Where is she? Who is she with?


I feel that I understand Carrie. I want to live away from my parents sometimes.
I thought that it was good to her family became a happy home.
