Food

Title: FOOD by Anne Schraff (Report by Stephen--S.T.)

Two weeks ago, I picked up a book without special reasons in ELI library when my reading teacher, Mr. Clint Taylor, asked his students to choose what they want to read.

Its title was “FOOD”. At first I started it without interest because of just homework, but I fell in reading it soon. The book, named FOOD, had very interesting contents as the expression of its front cover, “eXtreme CUSTOM SERIES”.

It introduced what various cultural or regional people have eaten, and I got a shock about their cookers such as mice and insects because they felt strange to me. But I could understand that everybody needed food, and it was differently developed by each country. Also it was same reason why people of another country could think my favorite food from Korea strange.

Although it was not that I could perfectly understand all of the book, and it did not introduce my country’s food, I thought that the book was valuable to read through the history and various kinds of food.

The Beatles

The Beatles. (Eunah Kang)

I read a book about the Beatles. The book explained from the start to the end of the band.
Also I could know about the members's private life such as their birth, love and death through it.
I love the beatles's songs. Especially Yesterday, Across The Univers, Norwegian Wood and I Will.
Because the songs have simple melodies but something that is special and captivating.
Now two members already died and the others are alive but very old, however,
the Beatles is still very famous all around the world.
Although they can't play together again, I'll remember them and enjoy their songs forever.
