Book Review

Hello, everybody. How are you getting along?
This is Shunsuke from EDC1.

I have finished reading a book of level 3, The Star Zoo. I'll tell you a little about this book.

The main character is Hummingbird who is a girl of sixteen and lives somewhere in the Galaxy, on a planet called just Like Home. The time setting of this story is many many years away after people abandoned the Earth. Long time ago, the Earth was too hot to continue living humans' life, and it was same to all the animals. Then animals were extinct and people escaped from the Earth into space. So people haven't seen any animals, but history of the Earth tells some information about animals. One day, she found the Star Zoo by chance. There were many kinds of alive animals. She wanted to take them to her own planet. Her family robot made a cat robot in order to introduce the Star Zoo. However, when people took one look at the robot, they immediately got crazy and mad. Most of adults somehow wanted to destroy that animal even though it was only a robot. And it was destroyed.
(To tell the truth, I couldn't understand why they wanted to destroy the animals...)

In the end, Hummingbird tried to show another cat robot to kids. They really liked it.
She thought it is too early to introduce the Star Zoo right now and it takes some time.


I couldn't tell you the summary of this book clearly, sorry.
Anyway, if you get interested in this book, please take a look when you are free.

Thank you.
