Tales of Ten Worlds by Arthur C. Clarke (1962)

     This week, I read Tales of Ten Worlds. This book is a science fiction sketchbook. I liked those stories because I was moved and interesting. So, I wanted to keep reading this book. From now, I am going to write down three quotes from "Dog star". This is my favorite story in this book and discuss it.
     The first one is:

"Leika was barking and scratching at the door" (p.38).

 this is a story about an astronaut and his lovely dog. An astronaut loved his dog, Leika. When earthquake happened, Leika informed to him, so he was survived. I thought Leika is very clever, good dog!

     The second one is:

"I had to choose between Leika and my job - and it wasn't an easy choice" (p.40)

After that, they were always together. But an astronaut was offered important job. And he choose the job at last. I thought it was a tough decision for him, because Leika was his favorite dog and his lifesaver.

     The third one is:

"Here on the Moon, she had come to me in a dream. She had saved me from another earthquake" (p.40)

A month later, Leika was dead, and as the years passed, he forgot about Leika. But when an earthquake happened again, he dreamed Leika was barking. And he was saved by Leika again. And then, he never forget her. It was an impressive story.

     I want to recommend this book, because this is a very nice and impressive story. They are SF stories, so if you like SF, please try it. About language difficulty - maybe, it was a little difficult because it includes universal words. But those stories are short, so you can enjoy many stories.
