     This story is about a king who being chased out by his brother. He reached an island with his daughter and found that the island was not just like common, it had lived by lots of fairies. Prospero, who loves books than in ruling his country, also learn in magic. He and his daughter, Miranda, begin their amazing trip.
     I love this story because it gave me a lot of imagination. I could see fairy flies over the shore and the king sit on the rock with his beautiful daughter. The story had a beautiful ending too. With the cleverness of Prospero, he success to return to his country and resume his position as a Duke of Milan.
     And to his daughter, Miranda, had met a true guy to treat her nicely. She had a romance love story with the man called Ferdinand. They were to fall in love at first sight.
