Book review2-11

I read a book called Different Worlds. Samantha was a main character in the story. She was deaf. This story was about Sam's love story with Jim, who was not deaf. Jim was working at the shop across the road from her house. She watched him from her bedroom window. Until she first saw him, she didn't think very often about being deaf. However, after she saw Jim, she wanted to be like most other people. Every Saturday, she went to the shop to buy something. One day, she bought a newspaper. Jim talked to her but she was embarrassed to talk with him because she was deaf. She just smiled and left the shop. She felt sad.
Ron, Sam's best friend, knew about Jim so he invited her to go to a party. They went to a party and Sam saw Jim. Sam and Jim played with snow. They had a really good time until a girl in the red dress came.
Sam liked Jim and Jim liked Sam. They started going out. She was very happy being with him. However, the girl in the red dress told Sam that she was Jim's girlfriend before Sam. She told Sam about Jim's music band and she wanted Sam to stay away from Jim. Sam was very sad.
One night, Sam's mother invited Jim to have dinner at Sam's house. Jim told Sam about Lauren and his musical band. Jim loved Sam very much. At last, she was happy ever after.

This story was interesting. I could feel how deaf people were thinking. I think it is very difficult for Sam and Jim to communicate. I thought it is like to communicate between people speak other languages. I often have problems speaking English. However, if we try to understand, we could understand well! The important thing to understand people is not only languages but also our hearts.
