The nightingale and the rose
By Oscar Wilde
The nightingale review
The nightingale was a sad and enjoyable story about how far a nightingale would go for someone to be happy. It reminded me to be thankful for what I have and to never give up.
My thoughts
It was a twist that I thought was very unsuspecting as the student was turned away when more was offered. It showed me that go with what you first offered if someone can provide it and don't turn them away because you don't know what they or someone else could have gone though to get that for you.
The rose
The red of the rose shows love and appreciation.
The nightingale
The nightingale showed that loyalty isn't just if you are a friend, loyalty can be between to strangers that have just met.
The rose bush talking
The rose bush did not want the nightingale to get the rose for it knew that to get the rose the nightingale would have to pay a heavy price.
The book
The book was catching and the illustrations were excellent. I find it really captured the moment and showed what the illustrator thought of the book and what the moral of the story was.
