At first,I chose this book because of this book's cover of nice man.
But when I began to read it,I felt this story was interesting!
This story told about King Arthur who was strong and had complex life.
Arthur was very brave man so I thought he was very cool.
But this book contains a few illustlations so it was difficult for me to understand detail scenes.
And I thought this story was little cruel because many people were killed in this story.
Sultan Shahriar hated all women because he had been betrayed a previous wife once.So he cut off a new wife after staying with him for one night.No girl wanted to be the sultan' wife for one night and then die.Vizir' daughter,Sheherezade,was beautiful and very clever.One day she said to vizir that she wanted to be sultan's wife to make everybody happy.and she married him...
I enjoyed it very much.Some short stories which she tell are famous and I had listened to it when i was a child.Each show more story is like a lesson.and I like this story's ending. show less
Sindbad was a very rich man and had a beauyiful house.One day he began to be bored with his happy life.
He decided to go on a voyage all over the world.
I think he was a lucky in surviving voyages.Alah protects him from deadly danger.
This book was so exciting that I forgot blinking.

Robin robbed rich people and help poor people to give their money.I read this book when I was a child,but I had forgot that story. So I enjoyed this book.
But I think robbing is not good even if he did it for poor people...
