Part 2: KEY CHARACTER

1.     Mrs Twit:

Mrs Twit brought relaxing smiles to us by the way that the writer describe this character humorously. It also educated children about the way how they think and do daily activities. It taught children that if we bring up their ugly thoughts in our mind, they will make us become worse and worse.

Mrs Twit was an ugly character not only from her outside, but also in her soul.  I was so impressive when I read about her horrible face because it also symbolized for her horrible soul. She always lived with the bad ideas when she was a child until she grew up and became an old woman. She lived selfishly, and she did not have any loves for children or animals. She often drive them away.    

For me, Mrs Twit showed me about the selfish thoughts, the life without loves and sharing with others. I can feel the most dangerous thing in our life is our selfish inside the soul, thoughts and action. Mrs Twit also did not want anybody to win her even if it was her husband. But it was also disastrous thing and made her get failure. The selfish and ugly thoughts

Even if you haven’t a beautiful face and you haven’t a nice body, and so on but you had a very nice soul with the good thoughts, you will become the best person in the eyes of people who lived around you. And although something really bad happened to you, please don’t think of bad things. I think maybe that was also the key message from the writer. 

2.     The Little Prince:

The Little prince not only showed the innocent minds of children but also contained a store of philosophy for adults. The tone of character and story was too exciting that if someone ever read, it was difficult to stop. Through by quaint and pure thoughts and feelings of the Little Prince, we also learned a lot of meaningful lessons of life.

The Little Prince showed me the reason why between the billions of the same people, there was only one person who made me feel the most special. Why in everyone’s eyes, the color of yellow wheat field still was itself, but for someone, it had a very special meaning?

How about you? Have you ever been tamed or ever tamed someone? The answer could be one, two or a lot. When you read this story, do you remember them?

Do you believe in that? I think maybe somewhere on a very faraway planet, there is a Little Prince living there with his own rose. He already felt her scent and her gentleness behind every claim and saying. Languages are the main source of every mistake because people just see clearly by their heart.

I could not forget the image of the Little Prince. He came back to his little planet but he left the meaningful things. This world is too large. Dreams are endless. The Little Prince travelled over other planets and finally he still was on tenterhooks to miss his little planet. That come-back was difficult and sorrowful. Could he come back?

I think he came back already and maybe the writer also visited him. Maybe the writer was not confused about whether the picture of the sheep without snout-ring ate the rose of Little Prince or not.

If someone who really loves this story, they can realize which is the only one star of Little Prince in the billions of stars on the night sky. Inside everyone there always existed something great, mysterious and respectful. And we should remember that “It’s only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eyes”. You must have responsibility with your taming someone. I also guess that is the key messages that the writer wanted to send to us.
