- Reflection
This is a book that I will probably recommend all the children to read because of its plot and pichtures within it. In this book, Willy uses his vast and creative imagination to dream. He can dream of becoming everything he wants, and he even dreams about the past and the future. I do think that the more we grow up, the less imagination we own gradually. We dare not to dream little by little due to the reality we face currently. However, imagination is born with it. We used to be so creative when we were still young. We could spend the whole night chatting with our beloved dolls, or we could sell our toys to the clients in the air as if we were a vendor. We seldom do those again. Reading this book encouraged me to dream again, and it reminded me about those dreams I lost maybe years ago, being a princess, a teacher, a writer, or a person I truly desire to be. People dream so that they realize it. I believe this book will help both adult and children. It helps adults to pick up their dreams again, and it encourages children to dream big!
