- Anastasia Krupnik Lois Lowry ★★★★★
これは ジュニア向けのお話ですが、大人の人も読むべきかなあと感じます。
１0歳のAnastasia は 緑ののノートに毎日好きなこと嫌いなこと好きな人、嫌いな人とリストを書きます。色々な経験を通して彼女はノートと共に成長していくのですが、彼女の両親はいつも娘 Ａnastasiaに誠実に対応します。とてもすばらしい両親です。 英語としては、単語もやさしく、高校レベルで読めそうです。
To Anastasia Krupnik, being ten is very confusing. For one thing ,she has this awful teacher who can't understand why Anastasia dosen't use capital letter or punctuation in her poems.
Then there's Washburn Cummings, a very interesting sixth-grade boy who dosen't even know Anastasia's alive.
Even her parents have become difficult. They insist she visit her ninety-two-years-old grandmother, who can never remember Anastasia's name,
One top pf all that, they're going to have a baby----- at their age!! It's enough to make a kid want to do something terrible. If she didn't have her secret green notebook to write in, Anastasia might never makeit to her eleventh birthday.
