The Happy Prince- Oscar Wilde- : Claude Kim Review

I read a book called 'The Happy Prince,' by Oscar Wild. The happy prince gave everything to poor people, because he wanted to help the poor. He gave his eyes and his skin as well as the ruby that was decorated on his sword. I don't think I'll be able to do something like that if I was in the same situation. Somehow, I feel sadder about the fact that the swallow died than the fact that the prince died. Prince gave everything he had, because he wanted to help the poorer people. . But I think that is not what the swallow wanted to do. . I'm sure the swallow wanted to fly off to Egypt and have a happy life, just like the rest of his flock did. However the swallow couldn't leave because the swallow had such a warm and kind heart. Staying in the town and help the prince and others is not big of a help to him. In the end, the people from the town had thrown the prince and swallow away. They did not know the reason why the prince had turned in to such a hideous person, obviously they are just too selfish. They think only about themselves, their own pride and happiness, not like the prince who gave everything he had, even his life, for the poor and the swallow, who had given his life to stay behind and help the prince. What I learn from this book is that we should not be selfish but be considerate of other people before thinking about what's beneficial to me. Also, we should always try to give the things to who have hardships in their lives. That is what makes me, a thoughtful 'person' and this story touched my mind.
