Guess what I found in one of Mamarazzi's book plastic. A bedtime stories by Enid Blyton. Mamarazzi said she used to read that when she was young. Nice book.
According to Mamarazzi, her favourite stories from this book was The Man Who Was Robbed and The Poor Woman In The Temple
The first story is actually the story of the Good Samaritan. About a man that was robbed and he was rescued by a Samaritan man. The man thought Samaritan are all bad people and would not help him but this one did.
The second story is about Jesus in a temple and he asked his disciples to observe a poor woman. The woman put two mites(money) into the donation box. Then a rich man put a lot of money in the donation box. He asked his disciples, which of the two give more? The rich man or the poor woman.
Ooo..I wanna sleep early tonight. Hope Mamarazzi will read the story to me.

ReplyDeleteI mentioned this book to some friends and they seems to be not aware of this. They know those famous one like the Famous 5, Faraway tree, amelia jane...
I really feel guilty la, coz never read a book ever since after I graduated from uni :P
ReplyDeleteLupa pulak Aunti wanna comment on the bible part. Old woman liao, so forgetful. LOL...
ReplyDeleteWho gave more between the two? Auntie think, the poor woman gave more, even though the amount is small. Why? BEcause she is poor, and the money could have costs her a few days meal, but the rich man who give a lot wouldn't even feel a pinch when he gave up his money.
Auntie Cleff
ReplyDeleteYou are so right :D
uLi
ReplyDeleteNo need to feel guilty. You didnt read books but have read mag and blogs. More or least the same la.
I too read a lot of Enid Blyton's books. Thus, my love for Enid Blyton's books led me into publishing a book on the writer, titled, the Famous Five: A Personal Anecdotage (www.bbotw.com).
