BR 2-09: Bruno's Tea

I read "Bruno's Tea" which is illustrated book. This book has 4 chapters and has a small CD.

Chen is child and his father owns a milk bar. The bar is well-known for his tea. His father imports the tea from China. Chen loads up my bicycle with Mr. Green's shopping everytime. Mr Green always orders 3 packets of the tea. Chen wonders why Mr Green can drink that much each week.

One day, Chen rided his bicycle to deliver 3 packets of the tea to Mr Green. He cycled his bicycle quicker and quicker. He always used his bicycle, but he thought he wanted a car. He was interested in cars, so he wanted to be a mechanic. However, his father wanted Chen to go to university.

He was thinking such a thing, he arrived Mr Green's house. He looked for Mr green's dog, Bruno, but it wasn't there. He knocked the door, but there was no reply. He felt strange. He knocked the back door, and he noticed the door unlocked. his father always said not to go inside a customers house, unless he was invited naturally.

Chen went inside and looked each room, but nobody was there. He decided going deep, and found a garage. Then he heard a whimper. It was Bruno. Bruno came up to him and pulled on his shoes. Then He could see a shoes near the front of the cars. It was Mr Green. He had been working on one of the cars, when he trapped and hurt his ankle. He appreciated Chen's doing.

After Chen helped Mr Green, He noticed Bruno lapped something up. It was his father's tea. Chen was surprised the tea was good for dog too. He went back home, and he told his father what was happened. He took a deep breath and he said"I don't go to university. I want to be a mechanic." And his father said"You have to do what's right for you."

After I read the book, I was moved by parent and child relationship. The book tell me it is important to tell my real intention.
