HBR - Test - Nury Vittachi

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Just as I was choosing books from our school library, this thin book caught my sight. It had a not jet black, but a greyish-black, dusty cover with a really ghostly picture. I picked it up and started reading it with a heart full of exciting expectations. The authors, Luther Tsai and Nury Vittachi started the story referring to two siblings, Miranda and Marco who felt that they were quite neglected by their parents who were always trapped in a busy business schedule and left their children with their affectionate grandpa. Grandpa was missing!!!!! He had vanished leaving them all alone when a sphinxlike package appeared at their door. The children not knowing what to do with it, ended up unpacking the bundle finding an enchanting and magical mirror in it!!!! What was it? A vampire or spirit unleashing mirror or was it just a simple mirror that the ladies used to wear make-up? It looked really antique. As these inquisitive children were examining the superannuated looking object, night fell and the shimmering moonlight from some open window fell onto the mirror and the room filled with the misty moonlight. Every corner seemed to illuminate by it's own and then something happened! The innocents woke up feeling that they had a nightmare but no, they found themselves in a confined room with plenty of supper beautifully arranged on a monstrous table. What is all this going on?<br />They were also swaying from side to side. Oh my goodness! They were dwelling in one of the cabins of a ship! Was it a pirate ship?!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjSMg0ZD5M35lUzjaTmtcuoRAhm9izy1EpBy2yo6OtpLzuTudtZVgXvKj6Ad2c9ilHio7jnFLZLSjbwULTmIQKpwnT1xclZngl-0LKgilxlO5l2_Elp5jsgzB4iVGOCy3TJ0MtCUQI-jZ0/s1600/9788184777864.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjSMg0ZD5M35lUzjaTmtcuoRAhm9izy1EpBy2yo6OtpLzuTudtZVgXvKj6Ad2c9ilHio7jnFLZLSjbwULTmIQKpwnT1xclZngl-0LKgilxlO5l2_Elp5jsgzB4iVGOCy3TJ0MtCUQI-jZ0/s1600/9788184777864.jpg" /></a>Will Marco and Miranda ever be able to return home safely? Explore and reveal the mystery yourself. This book is a totally entertaining book with as such no scope of improving one's language. It surely can nourish the reader's creative skills, in other words imagination. Recommended for people below the age of 11. The growing curiosity in me when I read the book can be felt by any young reader and this will encourage the person to read on........</div>
