BR 2-01: HAMLET

I read a book, HAMLET. I know HAMLET is one of the works of Shakespeare and it is famous work. However, I didn't know the story. So I thought I want to read it. When I saw this book for the first time, I had fearful image.

Hamlet was the King's son. He lost his father and his mother had married the new King, his uncle. Hamlet knew that the new King, his uncle killed his father and he decided to take revenge. There is a scene I think it is interesting. Hamlet had an idea to make sure the truth. He asked a troop of actors to put on a play about a man who poisons a king. The King and Queen settled down to watch the play. The King had gone pale and left the room. I think Hamlet is clever and the scene is interesting. In the end, Hamlet could kill the King, but Hamlet also dead because of poison. Hamlet could take revenge, but I felt sad. Before Hamlet die, he said to his friends, "I want you to tell the world my story." I thought Hamlet taught us importance of revealing the truth. I learned a lot of things through this book, so please read this book.
