Summary: The Interesting of The Land I Lost
Comment: The book that I've read was "The Land I Lost" by Huynh Quang Nhuong. This book takes place in Vietnam where the Vietnam War was still on. The story that had been told on this book was reality. The author of this book is the main character in this book and he experienced how to survive in a village where there are dangers. This book was telling about how it feels and what danger to live in a village a long timed ago. Huynh was still a little kid at that time and he lived with his grandma, grandpa, and his cousin. There are some dangerous parts where he and his cousin have to deal with the wild hog, python, horse snake, crocodile, and other animals. He also had a friend and it feels like a family, which is a bull named Tank.

I like this book because I'm interested on how the people from past live. I found that this book is good for all of ages, especially for those of you who are still using English as a second language.

Summary: The land I lost
Comment: Here is a book called 'The Land I Lost' it is written by Huynh Quang Nhuong.
Huynh is the main character he was born in the highland of Vietnam near the jungle. They were very wild animals. People train the buffalo called 'tank' it is the villages buffalo. They also trained monkeys and bird.
I didn't like some parts but I liked other part of the book. The bad reason is the book talks about the animals but doesn't tell me about how they lost their land. The good reason is it tells me about their life.

Summary: The land I lost , written by Huynh Quang Nhuong( Author)
Comment: This Adventure story is full of dangerous fun and sorrow. Huynh Quang Nhuong lives in a small hamlet (village)in the central high lands of vietnam. The hamlet he lives in has a jungle on one side in which they must watch for jungle cats, lone hogs and the most dangerous the horse snake. And on the other is a river which Crocodiles live in. Many of the crocodiles are man eaters like mister short. In the begin of the story you meet Tank the Water bufflo. Tank isn't your regular water bufflo. He is bred between a lowland female because it would be patient and A moutainous bull so it would have the fierce fighting able.

The reason I choose this book was because love the outdoors. when I six years old I live in a village in Alaska and I hunted and fished all the time.
