Log 2

I couldn't find the cover of this version online, and this edition was published in 1993. This is a very old book that I don't even know any information on the Internet, so I have to face my weakness - reading the whole book. This is what I've borrowed from the NTUST library:

 

The title of this book is The Swiss Family Robinson, written by Johann David Wyss, adapted by his son Rudolf in 1812. I searched the book online to gain background information of it, and I started to regret choosing this book not gonna lie. When first time seeing the book cover and the title, in fact, I was not facinated by it. The only reason why I chose it is the subtitle - Children's classic. As I mentioned before, I am not a reader, and I am so so so afraid of the pure text on the pile of paper. You know what? If people like me are forced to write reading reference, they will also select the book that seems to aim at "children". Well, I was wrong. The book is about adventures and the story of surviving in wildlife, leading by a family of parents, 4 children, 2 pet dogs and other animals. (I haven't read too many pages yet, thank you Wikipedia.)
The cover of the book looks like La Liberte Guidant Le Peuple, a paint of The French Revolution. Not really, just the vibe though. The man in the middle seems to be the oldest one, maybe their father due to the white hair. He waved kind of fur? bird? I guess. The man in the right side tried to exert force on a sort of tools, and I think it was related to cart. The man laying on the ground was searching for something, hunting, and so on. However, when I first grabbed the book, I thought they were farmers who were 

fighting for their right. In fact, I could never read the book that was too realistic or emotional since I am into fantasy or sci-fi as I mentioned in the first log. I am still afraid of flipping the book open. The undercover of it simply talks about the overall contents, and I was not suprised. Till now, I still regret that I borrowed this book, but it would be a great chance for me to step into a brand new journey of reading.
