The Tale of Despereaux

The rain just stopped not long ago and now the wind is blowing cosily. Aaah..such a nice weather. Just now in the morning, I went to the library in my school. I read a book entitled The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo. Actually, I finished reading the book already. The Tale of Despereaux is divided into four separate sections called "books". Book I covers Despereaux's childhood and origins, book II on Roscuro, an evil rat with a mysterious past, and book III is about Miggery Sow, a servant girl who is sold by her father for a red table cloth, a pack of cigars and a hen. The first three books are set years apart all concluding up until the fourth book. The fourth book concludes the story. I really love this book as it was so awesome. There are this phrase that I really like too and you know what, I find that it is very true.. there is no comfort in the word "farewell", even if you say it in French. "Farewell" is a word that, in any language, is full of sorrow. It is a word that promises absolutely nothing. what do you think? Did you find the phrase is quite true? By the way, zhichin has currently started to read the same book as mine also. I hope she will finish it soon.
