When I was child, I loved travel stories and movies. I have heard this title many times, so I can choose this book in the library. It is a little long story but it is not difficult for me to read this book because I've already known all stories.


The main character is Gulliver which loves travel and adventure. One day when he is in ships, a very strong storm hit the ship! He lost his way and arrived at one island called Lilliput. He woke up in this strange island and find differences. In his surprised, all things in this island are small!! People, food, building and plants, anyway all things is much smaller than Gulliver. All people surprised to Gulliver. At first they were cautious each other, but soon get good friends. Gulliver solved same problems among natives. The king of Lilliput thanked for Gulliver.
However, not all people were welcoming him. Some people criticized this big man because Gulliver were very expensive. So they decided to kill Gulliver!! Gulliver were so surprised and far away soon. The people who like Gulliver get surprised and felt sad, but they helped him to leave the island. Thanks for their helps, Gulliver could make ships and leave. Before leaving Gulliver get small caws and coins as a proof which he stayed at Lilliput. He said thankful word to good people, and could get his hometown.

Gulliver is same size to us. If we go to the island named Lilliput, we might be surprised. This book includes 2100 words. It was a little long, but I could read stories without caring time. And this book has CD. You can feel Gulliver's Travel at your side.
