Not Really Reading
“Roger, this is a special assignment, please read this book” said Mrs. Yenny as she handed a large book entitled "Indonesian Folklore: Legendary Tales from the Archipelago" to Roger.
Roger looked at the book with wide eyes. The book was big, it didn't even fit in his backpack. However, Roger took the book casually and said, “Ready, Mrs. Yenny, I will read this book seriously.”
After a dozen minutes of reading, Roger started to feel bored. The book contained many stories that Roger had never known, “I'm confused! How can I finish reading this thick book?” Roger thought. A cunning idea popped into his head.
He started pretending to read seriously. Every time Mrs. Yenny saw him, Roger would nod his head and look like he was deep into the story.
Half an hour before class ended, Mrs. Yenny asked Roger to tell the content of one of the stories in the book in front of the class.
Roger walked confidently to the front of the class. “Friends, today I will tell you a very extraordinary story from this book. It's about... uh... The Lion King and the Deer who had a big problem,” he said with excitement.
All eyes were on Roger. “The Lion King was a very wise king, but he had a bad habit... he always slept when there was trouble!” Roger continued, telling his story very freely.
“Then, the Deer came and gave the Lion King advice on how to deal with problems without sleeping... So, the Lion King finally wakes up, but gets confused himself!” Roger continued with his improvised story.
The class started laughing slowly, then louder and louder. Mrs. Yenny, who was listening from her seat, began to smile, although she tried to maintain her seriousness.
“So, the Lion King finally learned that sleep is not the solution to problems!” Roger ended his story with conviction, with a story that was completely out of sync with the book.
Would you agree if I gave this story a 9.75 @wakeupkitty @aneukpineung78?
I'm confused by the next part
When did the king fall asleep or did he dream the deer advice him? I expected a different tezt after reading the title and the picture misleads but I'm glad I read your funny child logic story.

There are no important aspects to this story, it flows without direction and there are no lessons to be learned.
So, if you're really confused, I've succeeded. That's the purpose of this story, to keep everyone confused, but entertained.

Really or did you just made this up because you forgot to write something since it doesn't read that way or is it the translator?
It's a story from a middle schooler, so it's only natural that there are a few parts that he (maybe) missed.
That me misses a few parts isn't the problem it's more that there's a weird text, perhaps the translator.
Not important always good LOL
You are the judge for your own pieces. We are here to judge your judgement, Your Highness. But I will hold the hammer a little longer on this one. and when it falls, I hope that you're still there. Be very careful with that hammer of yours.

Cute. Really sweet. You captured a child's logic and his solution. Children are very creative. A child's reality is very different from an adult's. What is real? What is imaginary? The boundary is blurred. We lose that wonderful creative space as adults. But is our reality real reality? Or is the boundary between reality and imaginary still blurred just from a slightly different angle of vision (or lack of vision)? You gave the reader something to think about as well as cute little story. #wewrite #miner-wewrite #comment

I am curious to hear what the thing is the reader can think about. Lighten me up please.
This gave me something to think about. :>)
" A child's reality is very different from an adult's. What is real? What is imaginary? The boundary is blurred. We lose that wonderful creative space as adults. But is our reality real reality? "
Reality is what we believe is true enough to be real. Strange you say this because if think of someone who would have kept the imagination of a child, I would think of you.
