Notes

There was a boy named Elias, he lived in a house nearby the sea. He was a spoiled child. His parents bought anything he wanted while he has two rooms filled with toys. On a Sunday evening, he wanted a game so badly but he couldn't get it. He fell asleep into a dream and met an orange cat who kindly asked for help. The cat wanted Elias to get fishes and so the cat said he had to work for it. The cat said he needed to earn some coins and put them in a small hole to get the box of fishes. And so Elias earned some coins by planting and watering the plants and flowers in Uncle Euro's field. After all the work, Elias told Uncle Euro what he did and earned some coins. He put the coins in the hole and gave the box of fishes to the cat. The cat was so thankful but it was worried about tomorrow. Elias thought of the sweetest blueberries in a small grocery store and his mom taught him how to make tarts. Elias bake some blueberry tarts and sold all of them and gave him earnings to the cat. The cat was so happy that it would carry through him for months. Then suddenly he woke up and went down to ask for a money box. In a year, Elias knew how to invest money and hosts a World Savings Day in his school. Then he became a very happy successful man.

1.) I chose this because it was a story about a boy who spends money nearly every single day and learned how to save money in a simple dream.
2.) What I like best about the story is that how a cat could teach Elias to earn money just by asking for help. What I like least about the story is how Elias treated his mom at the beginning.
3.) I like Uncle Euro because without him Elias would have never learned how to save and earn money. I didn't like Elias at the start because buying too many toys is useless.
4.) The characters seem both believable and unbelievable because a child growing up in two rooms filled with toys is believable because some children are like that and a cat talking is unbelievable because cats don't talk. Elias reminded me of many children around the world because most children want toys to play with while they have other toys.
5.) I felt happy at the end because Elias learned how to invest money.
