El libro comienza en Muloburgo, un pueblecillo extraordinariamente atrasado. Las gentes del lugar criaban nabos, mulos y malicias de patanes.

Allí, vivía Wiley, un niño de 12años, que compartía hogar con su madre ama de casa, su padre periodista, y su hermana Glorietta.

Wiley se embarca hacia una ventura en Amanecer, lugar de la montaña farsante, donde intentaran encontrar a su abuelo desaparecido.

Tiene que llegar hasta Amanecer, y reunirse con su abuelo. Al llegar a su objetivo, se dan cuenta, de que no existe, por eso se dieron cuenta de porque la llamaban la montaña farsante. Cuando supervisaron el terreno, encontraron el barco de su abuelo, el cual era marinero, pero él no estaba. Desde aquel momento, ya que no tenían ningún sitio donde pasar los días, se alojaron en El Fénix, (el barco del abuelo). Desde entonces, intentan buscar pistas de el en Amanecer.

El libro es muy divertido, y tiene varios temas que resaltan bastante: El viaje constante de la familia, el cual los une de manera positiva, la búsqueda de un familiar, importante parar toda la familia, los secretos que se descubren, que no sabían entre ellos, y el miedo al presenciar a dos asesinos, mientras hablan de ti. Pero el tema principal, es la familia, ya que en todo momento están juntos.

A parte de temas, este libro tiene una clase asignada. Yo diría que es de aventuras.

Es hora de hablar sobre los personajes principales. Todos ellos están entre los 11 y 80 años aprox., ya que, durante el libro, no lo especifica. Entre estos, hay niños y adultos: niños son los dos hermanos, (Wiley y Glorietta), y los demás son adultos.

Yo no me identifico con nadie en especial, pero el que mejor me cae, ha sido Wiley, un poco despistado, pero es buena persona. Además, compartimos el gusto por los comics. La que peor me ha caído, ha sido Glorietta, ya que parece un poco tonta, porque nunca sabe que hacer, y siempre se pone ha lamentarse. Una cosa que tengo en común es que, cuando pasa algo, solo piensa en negativo y eso a veces me pasa.

Este libro me ha gustado bastante, es muy alocado, y mezcla temas que nunca se me hubieran ocurrido. En resumen, es un libro original.

A mí, la mayoría de los libros, me aburren, solo algunos, en especial me han gustado, como “MOMO”, o la saga de LOS MUMINS, pero este libro se ha ganado mi respeto, ya que me gusto tanto, que lo acabe en una semana aproximadamente.

Se lo recomiendo a la gente que le gusten los libros que no tengan momentos serios, que no tengan ni pies ni cabeza, positivamente.

Si tuviera que elegir a quien recomendar este libro, personalmente, le diría que se lo leyese a: Carla, Jose, Esther y Gloria. Aunque creo que a Leire también le puede gustar.

Las ilustraciones, no son de mi estilo, pero, aun así, están bastante bien. En la portada, esta coloreada la ilustración, y por dentro, están en blanco y negro.

Por último, si pudiera preguntar algo al autor, le diría: “Vas a sacar la segunda parte, porque estoy ansiosa de que las aventuras de Wiley sigan”.

Book Report

The story is about a girl who have a magic finger that can make everything. She was next to the farm of the Greg’s family (Friends). First she put the magic finger in others occasions, but one day, she put the magic finger in the Greg’s family, but later she regretted (main and secondary ideas).

Finally…

 

The characters are: The girl who has a magic finger (In the book doesn’t have name), Mr. Greg, Mrs. Greg, William Greg, and Philip Greg (All of them are a family, except the girl who has a magic finger).

I believe that the author’s purpose with the book is to teach that you should not abuse any privilege that you have, in this case, the magic finger, since you may end up regretting what you have done.

I think the main theme of the book is the following: a girl with a magic finger aware of it abuses her power until she ends up regretting one of her actions.

I really liked the book, since I had already read others by the same author (Roald Dahl), and I had all liked them a lot, especially because of how fun they are, just like the one I just read.

It has been very easy for me to read this book, which has a very well explained index, and to my knowledge, there are no spelling errors.

I believe that the interest of the book is fun, which is present in each of the actions of the book.

Tove Janson (1914-2001) was born in Helsinki, daughter of a sculptor and a graphic designer. She trained as an artist and gained early renown as a painter and cartoonist, but it was the creation of the Moomin books, and series of eight novels for children, that brought her worldwide fame.

BOOK REPORT

• The book talks about, a little village that has a lot of different houses, from different kind of living beings. And it has different parts, the most important of the story, the Moomin valley.

There was a house, named the Moominhouse, where live Moominpapa and Moominmama, with their child Moomintroll and their friends.

 

One day, Moominpapa gets bored, and started to write his own memories, for everyone know who is him.

So he try to write his book, and every chapter he end, he tell it to his son, and his friends.

 

It is a fiction story, because, nothing of the story is real.

The story, also, has themes: one of them, the family that helps Moominpapa, to write his memories, also the difficult childish that Moominpapa have to pass, and the friends, that help Moominpapa in every problem of his life.

 

The characters of the story are more than Moominpapa, there are adults and 3 children, which are Moomintroll, and his friends: Sniff and Snufkin. I like all the characters, but if I have to try one, I’m going to choose the Muddler, because, is so shy and crazy, and has a button collection (it’s so rare but it’s funny).

 

• I like this book very much, and I found that there are more. So, I read the 1srt and the 2nd. They are very funny.

Along this time, I have finished all my books, so I said to my father to buy more of the Moomin series. I love the illustrations, and I want to finish all the books and read those 2 or 3 times. I love the book. I have choose a great book for this third term.
