The Author is Louisa May Alcott. The story about four sisters. They have the different characteristic.  They grew up in hard home environment. The story was took place when their father was in war (civil war) for a year. The eldest daughter Meg was beautiful and calm, second daughter Joe was masculine, outgoing and brilliant. She was aspiring writers. Third daughter Beth was shy. And Fourth daughter Amy was cute. They live harder and they miss their father. The girls were friendly with Laurie, the boy who lives in next door. Joe and Laurie were more friendly then other sisters. At first, Amy dislikes Laurie, but after Laurie rescued Amy when she sink to the water.

Laurie’s tutor, John proposed Meg. And their father was come back. Laurie proposed to Joe, but Joe refused. The years after, Amy grew up and went to the Europe to study Art and Joe became to the Author.

 

This story is about the love between the sisters and the family. When I read this book I think It’s not a bored book. I recommend this book to person who the young woman or girl who has sister. I think they can share more feeling about the family’s love.

 

‘Mother, if she should die, it will be my fault.’

I like this part because I knows that this means, because my friends who have the sisters or brother always said that kind of words.

Current Event: Dreamliner: Japan's ANA restarts 787 flights

The first flight landed at Tokyo's Haneda airport on Sunday evening, local time, after a short flight from Sapporo in northern Japan. Other airlines have already resumed 787 flights, but ANA is Boeing's biggest Dreamliner customer, with 17 planes. An overheating battery on an ANA flight led 787s being grounded in January. It followed a separate battery-related emergency on a Japan Airlines flight. The planes have since been modified with new battery systems and have been given approval to fly again by the US Federal Aviation Authority. Sunday's Dreamliner flight was the first of five scheduled by ANA in May, before the airline restarts a full commercial schedule on 1 June. It ran its first test flights in late April. ANA operates more than a third of all Dreamliners currently in service, and has another 36 on order. In a statement issued on Friday, Osamu Shinobe, ANA's chief executive, said the airline remained committed to the aircraft. "The safety of passengers is our number one priority. Modifications for all 787 have been implemented and ANA has undertaken its own additional testing," he said. "The 787 remains a game-changing aircraft, important from an environmental, efficiency and passenger comfort perspective."
