HARRY

I read "HARRY and the Lady Next Door". Harry was a white dog with black spots. He loved all his neighbors. He did not love the lady next door. The lady next door sang. When she sang, Harry's ears heart. She sang louder than the peanut whistle, the siren on the fire engine and the cats sang. Harry tried everything to make her stop.

But it did not do any good. The lady next door went on singing. One day Harry's family gave a party. They invited the lady next door. When she started to sing, Harry bit the leg of the piano instead. The family sent Harry out of the room. When Harry pushed the door open the wind blew in and it blew the pages music off the piano.  He ran away with them. He ran until he came to a quiet spot. He dropped the music and lay down. Soon he fell asleep. In a little while, something woke Harry up. All around him were cows mooing. He had never heard anything so soft and low. He rounded up all the cows to the lady next door. The cows mooed soft and low. But it did not do any good. The night, Harry slept in the dog house.

The next day Harry heard a wonderful sound. It was the big horn in the Firemen's band. Harry took them to the lady next door. The big horn player played even softer and lower then before. But it did not do any good. That night, he slept in the dog house again.

A few nights after that, the family took Harry to the park. They were going to here Firemen's Band. But The ladies came out. On the end of line was the lady next door. Harry took one look and ran off. And he heard something. It came from inside a watering can. Harry took the handle of the can in his mouth and went to the lady next door. Harry put the watering can on the floor behind the lady next door. Two frogs jumped out of the can to lady's head and shoulder. The other ladies in the contest shrieked and ran from the stage. But the lady next door went on singing. And the lady next door won the singing contest. And she won First Prize, it means she can study music in a far-off country for a long time. Harry was the happiest. In the middle of all the fuss the frogs hopped home. Soon the time came for the lady next door to go away. Harry went to the ship with the family to see her off. The lady next door started to sing a good-bye song. But no one ever heard her. Just as she sang the first note the ship blew its foghorn. It was a deep, low, wonderful sound. Harry thought it was the most beautiful good-bye song he had ever heard.

I think Harry is wonderful dog. He tried many many things to make her stop. He didn't never give up. I respect his mind of thinking. He tried again and again. He taught me never give up mind! I always want to have that mind. This book made me feel so good. I was happy that Harry could his work. Congratulation, Harry! And thak you taught me important thing.
