Journey-of-the-Noble-Gnarble-Wants-to-See-The-Sun


Once we have known some children stories about adventurous we never forget. Stories we enjoy much for its joy to taste life. Like Gulliver Travel which inspires me to read The journey of the Noble Gnarble.

The Noble Gnarble is a little sea horse living in a deep water. He never sees the sun. So, he wants to see the sun and the blue sky.

This Gnarble has little fins. No one believes he can achieve his dream to see the sun and the blue sky. Simply, it's because his small fins and no gnarbles has ever done it before. So, his friends laughed at him.

However, he keeps pursuing his dream. He keeps swimming. He does not care what other thought of him. Though he is tired, he does not dare to stop. 

Then, a Noble Gnarble meets a Subbalubble. A big fish. He wants to eat Gnarble. Luckily Gnarble is just too little, he can slip away easily.

He moves forward diligently. Seeing a shaft of light, a Noble Gnarble feels so happy. He grins widely. He came so close to his goal. He does not know danger was ahead of him. A plink. A very big fish with big belly.

Suddenly he finds himself being chomped down. He cries desperately. He wonders why he does what he does. He tries to think hard about how to get out of there safely. 

He paces back and forth. Back and forth. His floppy tickling the plink. The plink tries not to laugh. He openes his mouth a little. A Noble Gnarble gets a chance. He swims away.

He feels free. He swims further up above. To meet his dream. The sun and the blue sky.

Discussion

Reading this children's book is fun. The story is so enchanting with its beautiful illustration. Besides its depth.

The first lesson I got is we can't give up our dream easily. Though no one is with us. We just need to focus on our target.

The second is bullying I think is a stigma within ourselves. The concept we believe in which is not always true. No matter how bullying is from our friends. It still is toxic. Dangerous.

Then, consistency is the last point. It is very important because we often give in easily. We often stop doing what we must do, though we actually are closer to our goal. We just don't know it yet. 

Finally, I think a Noble Gnarble taught us how life is not easy. However, he keeps moving on. He never stops fighting!
