Summary: Good for comparison/contrast with Steinbeck's The Pearl
Review: I use this picture book in my classroom once we have finished reading Steinbeck's The Pearl. There are many parallels between the two stories. Asking students to compare and contrast the two allows me to assess understanding of Steinbeck's work. It's a fun exercise which also allows me to delve into thematic concerns.

Summary: This book tought me whatis the happiness
Review: MY BOOK REPORT The pearl This book is writed about happiness and unhappines. There is a family they are very poor. Main charactor is Kino. Though they are poor and rich persons always look down on them, they were living peacefully.But one day they found a pearl. It is very big pearl. As soon as the neighbor have heard that news. They changed ther attitude to them. The familly knew they all envey. Every night they cant sleep, and they became that theycan not believe their neighbors. After all they threw it away to the sea. This book tought me that happiness is not a money. We cant buy a happiness by money.Sometimes too much wealth cause a trouble in human society. May be killed by your sweethoney.
