Blog#6: The Greatest Treasure (Mizuki Yanagisawa)


Hello everyone, this is Mizuki Yanagisawa. Today I am going to introduce a wonderful storytelling to you. Here is the video of storytelling. Please watch this video first, and then please read my article.




This heart-warming story is called “The Greatest Treasure”, which is told by Amit Garg. In this story, various characters appear as story goes on. A boy called Peter is a friendly main character of this story that goes to some adventures to find a treasure. A lion, who Peter first meets, is so strong and courageous that he leads Peter into the forest. An eagle is Peter’s friend which has excellent vision and can alert Peter to dangers. A sheep also becomes Peter’s friend who has soft hair and can keep Peter warm when it is cold. A camel, which is called the ship of the desert, helps Peter get across the desert. A turtle also helps them cross the ocean. An Owl is a key character who has ancient wisdom. Briefly, the plot of the story is about Peter’s finding a treasure. One day, Peter finds a treasure map and decides to go to have some adventures. On his adventure, he meets a lion, an eagle, a sheep, a camel and a turtle and asks them to join in a treasure hunt. Even though there are many mountains, valleys, seas, and deserts that hinder their adventure, they overcome those struggles by helping each other. Finally, they meet an owl and the owl says Peter and his friends have already found the treasure. When they ask where the treasure is, the owl answers that the treasures are their cooperation and friendship. Finally, they look each other and realize that the owl is right. Overall, I liked this story. It is because the characters in this story were very familiar to us so that it was easy to understand their feelings. Moreover, I was interested in this story because the story tells us some morals which are a friendship and to help each other is important in our lives. Therefore, I recommend you to listen to this story and want you to enjoy it!
