The Books We Read
Where the Mountain Meets the Moon
Our class was reading a book called Where the Mountain Meets the Moon. We are reaching the end of the book, and Minli has has just reached the Old Man of the moon. Minli has 2 Questions to ask, but the Old man of the moon says that she can only ask one. I was going to write down something that would let 2 people ask questions, until someone reminded me that only 1 person, comes every 99 years. I think that Minli should ask for the buffalo boy to have more fortune because on her adventure she realized that she has a lot more than the buffalo boy, even though she was very poor. So she will still have done something good by making somebody else happy. That is what I think Minli should do.
