The main characters of the book are children and their grandmother. The children are Biff and Chip.
Chip is a boy, who is a kind boy. He often helps his grandmother.
Biff is a little girl who is Biffs’ sister. She is a very active girl and she always keep smile.
Gran was their grand mother. She was old woman with white hair and so kind for them. She lived alone at the country.
One day, they went to stay for a week at house of their grand mother. Their mother sent them to grand mother’s house by car. Mother was worry wonder if they cause trouble to grand mother. Gran’s house was small. It had two bedrooms. So Biff and Chip had to sleep in same bed.
In the afternoon, they went out and took for a walk. They went to the woods. There were some strange foods in the wood. Biff found some blackberries and they pick up them to make jam. Biff and Chip helped her. Chip made some label and Biff licked the spoon. They made 9 jars of jam. And some of them were souvenirs for mother.
In the evening, they prepared for a big fireplace. The house was old and they needed some logs. They talked about ghosts. Biff was very interested in ghosts but gran said there were no such things.
In the night, they sat down near a big fireplace. They felt calm and tried to eat new jam. It was so delicious and they ate much. And chip asked Biff to play Haunted House before they go to bed. But she seemed to be afraid of ghosts.
The time when they go to bed came. Biff was so terrible so that she asked her gran not to have ghosts in their house. Of course, gran answered not. But Biff and Chip couldn’t sleep. So Biff had an idea. She decided to be surprise for chip. She pretended to be a ghost with her sheet and a torch. She put the sheet and switched on the torch. And sheet glowed. But Chip was not so surprised and laughed. And then they heard a noise. So Chip looked out of the window. But that was not a ghost but an owl. They were relieved but they found something outside. They thought a real ghost this time. They ran to gran’s room, but she wasn’t in the bed. They ran downstairs and looked for gran. But gran wasn’t downstairs. And then, the door was opened. Biff and Chip were so frightened. That was gran. They smiled and they threw herself into her arms. They thought gran was ghost. Gran thought Chip and Biff were her monsters.
This story was so pleasant. I thought Grand mother were kind for her grand children in any country in the world. I felt good old days in my child hood. If you read this book, you can feel good old memories. It was not terrible. I recommend this book. (501world)
