BR 1-09: Lucky Number


I read "Lucky Number" last night. The reason that I chose the book is title of the book. When I saw the title at first, I thought the book seems to be interesting! Actually, it is very interesting.

A main character of the story is Carlie. He is a child, and he works in the pavement as shoeshine boy. He shined men's shoes or women's shoes everyday.

One day, an old man was selling the public lottery. A man who sit on chair in Cafe Colombo bought it. Charlie was seeing it. When the man who bought the public lottery got into the taxi, he dropped the public lottery. Charlie picked up it and called the man. But the man didn't notice.

Chalie came back to home at night. Hehanded his mother the public lottery, then his mother read the number of it.

That night, Carlie had a dream.
A goat came into his room, and the goat ate the public lottery!
He got up and checked the lottery. The lottery has been lost!!
Carlie was impatient about it, but actually, his mother had it.

Will they win the prise!?


This story is little sad I thought. Because some Carlie's illustration of the book seem to be sad.
But I thought that the story is very lucky story. I want to know whether their public lottery come up!!
