The Enchanted Garden

I read the book called "The Enchanted Garden" which was written by Italo Calvino. When I have read it, I felt that the place in the enchanted garden is the place we cannot experience even once in our life. (The rich Thai may do it.) At the same time, I felt a boundary line between rich person and common citizen. The author is seemed of trying to tell us the enchanted garden is the game that was forbidden. There are the boy in beautiful house and has the illness and two children in the story, but they had had nothing to do with rich and poverty and they were not able to be satisfied there. Giovannino and Serenella were afraid of being to catch, and the rich boy was suffering from the illness. The enchanted garden is place where is forbidden for them.

When I have read this story, I used a reading strategy, which is called "When text becomes difficult, I read aloud to help me understand what I read." When rich boy appears, I got confuse because of change of character. Then I thought he is Giovannino at first time. After I have re-read 2 or 3 times, I used another strategy, which called “I use picture drawings, tab les, and maps in text to help me understand better what I am reading” I take the note about what there are surrounding them and their activity when the characters changed.
