Hidden Flower:Response

I thought the story explained Murasaki Shikibu's life very well. The problems in her life -such as not having a husband anymore-sounded tragic, but somehow she managed to get past it,which shows she is a very brave woman. If i had the chance, I would love to read Murasaki's stories,such as "The Tale of Genji",which-in the story- is told to be one of the best series she has ever written.

It starts off with Murasaki learning how to write Chinese and putting it Into poetry. But that's not all she was capable of, she also wrote stories, like her most popular story "The Tale of Genji ", which Murasaki's husband,Fujiwara Nobutaka-a high ranking court official inspired her to write after his death,which was one year after Murasaki's daugter, Katako, was born.

Summary:"The 'Scream' School Of Parenting"

"The 'Scream' School Of Parenting" is about a girl named Naomi who doesn't have much confidence in herself.
The setting of the story takes place on her birthday, where Naomi will be turning 16. But her parents are so caught up at work that they aren't able to celebrate her birthday. At the same time her neighbours-who went to the scream school of parenting- are to busy yelling at their 3 kids because their to lazy to stop their behavior. So while they are drinking, smoking and exchanging loud comments and jokes Naomi will have to sped her 16Th birthday alone.

I thought that the story was going well until it made no sense when they started involving the neighbours. I also thought there was very well description used to tell what was happening in the story, and the humor was also amusing. So all and all the story still got a thumbs up from me.
CHOW
