BR 2-15: Puss in Boots


I read “Puss in Boots” today. The main character is Tom and Puss. When Tom’s father died, the brothers got legacy. But Tom got a cat only. This cat is Puss. Tom was worried about his life. He thought that Puss was just a pet. But Puss was an amazing cat! Puss could talk. And he was co cleaver. Tom found Puss a leather bag, a shiny pair of boots, cloak and a floppy hat. Puss captures the rabbit. And he said the king “It is a present from Duke of Carabas”, and presented the rabbit. When the king and Puss became friendly, Puss made Tom bathe in the place that the king and the princess were. Then Puss told a lie “The property has been taken by the thief while bathing”. And Puss introduced Tom to the king and invited the king in Duke of Carabas’s castle. They arrived at a luxurious castle. In the truth, the castle was Ogre’s. But Orge was cheated, transformed a rat. Puss ate it! Puss killed Ogre. Then the castle became Tom’s. The king felt admiration for Duke of Carabas. He wanted Tom to get married to the princess. Before the day was out, Tom married with the princess. Also Puss became an aristocrat and captured the rat only by play.

I thought that Puss is an interesting cat because he is very cleaver and could talk. It is happy for Tom to got Puss. My favorite line is when Puss said “Don’t look so gloomy” (Patchett, 2005, p.6). Puss cheered him very much when his father died. His elder brothers got mill and donkey. Tom was happier than them. Puss helped Tom very much to make Tom happy. Perhaps Puss wanted to be happy, so he worked harder!
