BR 2-15: Bertha

I read "Bertha" which is illustrated book. This book has three chapters and has a small CD.

A family was washed them car one day. The car named Bertha was very old, so the family wanted a new car. Maddy who was younger sister wanted a pink car. Jake who was elder brother wanted a purple one. The father wanted black one, and the mother wanted yellow one. After that, the family decided to look at new car, and they went to car dealer.

The father, the mother and Maddy liked the first car, but Jake didn't like it because there were not rear seat space enough. The second car ran well, but the seat was hard. The third car was great, but the sound of the horn was terrible. Finally, they didn't decided car on the day. They thought that Bertha was better car of the three.

After Bertha was getting older year by year. The exterior of Bertha was terrible. Jake and Maddy didn't want anyone to see them in Bertha. Finally the father decided to change car. He thought everyone's order and the color which they wanted...

After I read this book, I thought the father's choose was unexpected. I thought it is easy to exchange the horn, so the family should just exchange good one. My favorite phrase of the book was "You're all going to love this car." (Mitchell, 2007, P, 15) I guessed the father was looking forward to show them new car on the time. And the father's face was always funny.
