Book review 2- 14

This is the story of Hapu . He lives in Ancient Egypt at the time of Queen Cleopatra. His father, Bak, has a small factory. He makes gold tables and chairs. Hapu helps him. He is a ‘fireboy’. Every day he pushes a long handle up down. The work is hot and very hard.
But what can he and his father do? They are poor people. They need to make money.
Every evening they sit beside the Nile. Bal talks to his son about the factory, tomorrow’swork-everything. “one day we are going to be very rich,” he tells Hapu.” Are we?” The fireboy looks into his father’s tired eyes. “Yes”. Bak smiles. “I don’t know how and I don’t know when, but we are.” Then he stands up. “ Come on”, he says. “ It’s late. Let’s go home”. Three days lather Hape and Bak are making a table. It is very hot in the room. Suddenly Bak stops work. “ What is it, father?” Hapu asks. Is something wrong?
“ I don’t know,” Bak answers. He closes his eyes. Bak becomes sick.
Hape makes a lot of tables and chairs. But not only tables and chairs, He makes a gold necklace, too. He decides that He is going to give it for Queen, and make money.
This is success story. I think it is really nice!
