BR:03 The Giant Jelly Beans Jar

Every week he goes to Jo-Jo’s Jelly Bean Shop hoping to guess the riddle that will win him a whole jar full of them! Ben always knows the answer to the riddle, but he has never won the prize. It’s hard to speak out loud in front of so many people. How will Ben ever win the jar of delicious jelly beans? (back cover)

 

This is story Ben who loves jelly beans, but he is very shy boy. So, he couldn’t always answer the riddle although he know answer it. I think that speaking in front of everyone needs courage. So, I understood a little his heart. Also, Ben was helped by Jill of his sister when he couldn’t remember an answer, so I thought that Jill is kind sister. Moreover jelly beans appear on this story, so I became want to eat it after a long time, too because I used to eat them when I was a child. This was good story!
