A STRANGER AT GREEN KNOWE written by Lucy M. Boston


Reviewed by FUSAMURA Yuzuko. In this revel 2 reader, this story in the adventurer.

This story begins in the African Congo. Deep in this hot, wet, forest lived a little gorilla. He lived there with his family. One day his family were killed by human beings. However he was taken to the Zoo. he was named Hanno by his keeper.

One day, he met a boy named Ping in this Zoo. When Ping saw Hanno in the Zoo, he was excited, but was unhappy, because he thought taht Hanno should be free.

Then, Hanno escaped from the Zoo. A few days later, Ping and Hanno met again at Green Knowe. Gradually, bonds of them became strong. However Hanno was killed by a man who killed Hanno's father at the end of the story.

I felt sad because a man who misunderstood Hanno as being tried to kill Ping killed Hanno.

Yuzuko,
Nice description of this story. It seems like a sad story. You have done well in this review and have chosen a good picture for your post. I was surprised that the gorilla was able to escape. Keep up the good work.
