BR 1-13: Dick Whittington

There was a boy called Dick Whittington.  He lived on his own, in the country.  He was very poor, so he thought that I need job.  Then, he asked various workers to work.  For example, he asked boatman, builders, and blacksmiths and so on.  He came to go to London in spite of many miles away.  He arrived at London, and he asked many people to work.  However, he wasn’t able to find job, so he curled up on the steps of a big house and fell asleep.  The next morning, he got up to hear someone shouting in his ear.  Before he could move, a man came out of the house.  He did housework at this house.  He slept at a little room of the house, but he wasn’t able to sleep there because there were many mice.  How would he exterminate a mouse?  

I think he is great because he went to London to do a job.  Because he met kind people at London, I felt relieved.  However, the night when he could not sleep lasted, so I thought I feel sorry.  I thought he is smart in having taken an action that I don’t occur to him.
