Happy Prince Story By Oscar Wilde Review

Blowing to the fact that almost all the book-readers have known about the Happy Prince . As one , I got to get a review about it . Like everyone saying  , Happy Prince is one of the touching heart story. Not only heart warming , but also knowledgeable . Oscar Wilde completely changed the way we look at thing . Maybe It was what we all should read. Let's start telling a brief story about it.

Living in one beautiful city , One prince was named as Happy Prince . He stayed in the palace all days without leaving. In everyday life, he played , laughed and joked all around with no worrying . By the time , he passed away , all the villagers made a statue of him standing with sword which all made of gold . His eyes were placed with sapphires , and his sword was put with the ruby.

After the ruby , he asked the bird to take off sapphire as his eyes to give to the younger play writer . He finally ended up giving away his last eyes to a poor little girl who sold the match . Due to bird's kind heart, he decided to be prince's eyes telling the prince everything . He reported each day and pulled out the leaf of Happy prince helping the villagers.

The Happy Prince was no long handsome, but old ugly grey statue. The winter arrived and the bird said goodbye to the prince before he died. Suddenly the prince's heart cracked. All the villagers buried his statue leaving his cracking heart away with the bird's corpse on the rubbish .

The God sent one of his fellow to find the two most important things in the city , so he took the prince's cracking heart , and bird to the heaven. Finally , both of prince and swallow stayed in the heaven happily ever after.

How was the story ,huh ? It may blow up your mind or not. In the his tragedy story , I have noticed something strange and awkward . It was the statue itself. Most of the people only build the statue with out look. However, strangely this town dwellers only built the heart for the prince . It is odd to me to know if it is the culture alone or the story .

On the other hand, I found the author pointed out of thing that every society always does. People do not like ugly thing , so most of all they tend to ignore or  cruelly destroy for beauty sake. Honestly , I have no idea why the human's brain works like this. In contrast , those who are smart more likely using both brain and heart . I like the perspective that the author did actually hide the concept of life in the story . That's why the old classic books died hard.

All right , this is just the recommendation . I suggest every reader should at least know the Happy Prince story by Oscar Wilde. More and least it truly depends on you . Somehow the old books your grandma or grandpa left for you worth million time more than you expected. So treasure every book you have read, as a book nerd, I would say " Every Book has different ending , and every story has different meaning . What it takes is only your time to explore. "

20 Things You Need to Know about Harry Potter and Chamber of Secrets

20 things You will not notice in Harry Potter and Chamber of Secrets

                                            

1. After Dobby; House –Elf caused enough trouble for Harry, Harry was starved in the bedroom for days. He was only allowed to be out for morning or evening to bathroom.  One bolt of soup and little food were served the full day.



2.  At Ron’s house, Ron showed Harry how to get rid of gnomes, a tiny man who lived in garden ground. They were put up high and bewildered, so they could not find the way back home. Having put a few of them to 50 feet height, Ron and Harry went back inside. After a while, they looked at the ground and saw the gnomes ran back to the yards. 

3. Floo power took Harry to KnockTurn Alley accidentally in the reason that Harry coughed while saying the words. In the shop where Harry had no idea where it was. He saw Malfoys, Lucius Malfoy with his stupid son, Draco Malfoy. They were in the shop to sell something which seemed illegal to ministry of magic. 



4. Harry and the weasley went to Gringotts together. Harry at the time realized how less the Weasley had. They only had a little silvers, Knuts and 1 gold Galleon .Reaching his own lock , Harry tried to block all the view. It seemed totally bad to let them know he had a lot that he was afraid they felt embarrassed. How kind!!  

5. Arriving at school safe and sound through the flying car , Ron and Harry hurried in the castle. They stood at the great hall looking for Ginny( she loved cats and I never knew that .) who was the first year at Hogwarts . When they noticed Snape was not there, they spoke ill of him. But they ended up knowing he was behind them ,looking for them who were not on the school train.

6. Colin Creevey , a new first year boy in Gryffindor house kept annoying Harry. He even asked Harry to take a photo and signed on the picture. He said his family was the muggle born. His father was the milkman ,they could not believe that his son was selected to Hogwart Witchcraft and Wizardary school. He was so proud to have one wizard in the family. 

7. You would never know how stupid Gilderoy Lockhart was. He taught everyone about his own-self , not the magic against dark art .His quiz was more ridiculous than an ever. 
What’s Gilderoy Lockhart’s favorite color ? 
What is Gilderoy Lockhart’s secret ambition ? 
What’s , in your opinion , is Gilderoy Lockhart’s greatest achievement to date ? 
When is Gilderoy Lockahart’s birthday, and what would his ideal gift be? 

( and Hermione got everything right. )

8. The Deathday Party , Nearly Headless Nick celebrated his 500^th deathday in the castle inviting all his ghostly friends included Harry , Hermione ,and Ron. On the Halloween day while everyone was enjoying the feast , three of them popped up in the ghost party listening to dead song with the most disgusting food ( well, I guess they starved ) .



9. In History of Magical lesson with Professor Binn who was the only ghost teacher. Hermione was the only one who raised her hand to distract him . She asked him for the legend of Chamber of Secret . Then he was the one who told them about the chamber of secret ,not Professor McGonagall ( her lesson was transfiguration ).



10. Mr Filch was a squib . Harry stumbled upon it when he was in Filch’s office( punishment of walking around the castle with a little mud on the body due to Quidditch practice ) . A Squib was someone who was born in wizard world ,but had no magic. There was a short course to learn magic like Kwikspell ,so Filch took the course because he could not do magic, and that’s why he hated the students so much . 



11. Glideroy Lockhart had opened the Dueling Club himself teaching everyone how to defend themselves against dark art. The rest were paired.
- Harry Potter  V.S  Draco Malfoy
- Hermione Granger V.S Millicent Blustrode

 ( she got Millicent’s cat fur and turned into the cat  )
- Ronald Weasley V.S Seamun 
- Neville Longbottom V.S Justin Finch Fletchy 



12. After Harry spoke Parselmouth , Fred and George kept annoying Harry by calling him Heir of Slytherin ( Everyone thought it was him, even Hermione did not talk to him till they made Polyjuice Potion.) .
“ Oh , get out of the way ,Percy . Harry’s in hurry .”said Fred
“ Yeah , he’s off to the Chamber of Secrets for cup of tea with his fanged servant ,”said George .
Well, to his surprise , Harry did not mind ,because at least to Fred and George being heir of Slytherin was quite fun.



13. Lucius Malfoy who was the noble pure blood family did the stealing stuff after all. They got their own secret chamber to keep stuffs which was forbidden in Ministry of Magic. Unfortunately , Ron and Harry caught what Malfoy said in Common room of Slytherin when they pretended to be Crabbe and Goyle . Ron sent the owl to his father telling him to check under the Malfoy’s drawing room. 



14. On Valentine day , Professor Lockhart sent the dwarfs everywhere in the castle. Harry got one from Ginny Weasley . The dwarf sang Harry the song “ His eyes are as green as a fresh pickled toad , His hair is as dark as a blackboard , I wish he was mine , He’s really divine , The hero who conquered the Dark Lord.” Of course , as what Harry expected Fred and George sang that song all days . ( What the annoying nuisances ) 



15. Even though the attacks were happened in row ,and Headmaster was suspended , the school still proceeded the exam as usual. According to Professor McGonagall , Professor Dumbledore wanted to keep the school as normal as possible. Well, I guess by possible meant normal class , not normal exam . 



16. If you know the bitter story of Tom Riddle , you probably don’t hate him this much . He was rested in the Muggle orphan . After his Muggle-born father realized his mother was the witch , he abandoned him before he was born. That’s why he was unable to love .



17. Harry and Tom somehow shared the same likeness. Harry was an orphans who raised by Muggles like Tom. They both were Half- Blood. Either Harry or Tom could speak Parselmouth. If it is not because he asked not to , he would be in Slytherin.



18. Waiting in Professor McGonagall Office , Mr and Mrs Weasley hugged their children so tight with great relieve they were okay. There in Professor McGonagall’s office were Professor Dumbledore, Harry , Ron , Ginny ,Mr and Mrs Weasley , Professor McGonagall herself ,and Professor Lockhart waiting to know what happened in Chamber of Secret. After sending Ginny to hospital wing , Ron was asked to enjoy the feast leaving Harry and Dumbledore alone.



19. If you read Harry Potter book, you might know how Percy cared about his position so much . Well, despite position as School Prefect he got to care about his girlfriend as well. Ginny caught him and Ravenclaw prefect ,Penelope Clearwater kissing . After the attack of Hermione and Clearwater , he was so worried about her. ( SO SWEET !! )



20. There was the night feast that was suddenly brought up by the school .The students spent all night enjoying their feast with their pajama on after the calling. The great hall was never so loud to celebrate the coming back of people who were petrified , solving Chamber of Secret , having gamekeeper back , getting rid of Defense Against the Dark Art teacher , and having no exam . HORRAY !!!!
