Mightier Than the Sword True Bravery

Mightier Than the Sword is a book that I would give 4 1/2 stars.  In every story there is someone who does something that is remembered.  Everyone starts out with a problem but they fix it.  There was one story that a man Abdul goes to work but fails finishing and has to do seven years of work instead of getting 1,000 rubles.  When his brother goes to take the bet the way his brother did hoping to at least he would get through more than his brother did.  Now wonder what happened or read the book.  Another story is a poor farmer who just uses his fox to hunt for food soon gets lonely.  His pet fox helps him and he gets a castle becomes rich and marries a princess.

  Everyone has a personality that is brave, faithful and strong.  I say this since they always stay strong no matter what they always have the best story about them.  It’s either a little boy getting to school and sees a knight but instead just walks up to him and pretend like nothing ever happened.  Or when someone faked being what he isn’t and whenever he got scared he said “I am brave and I have faith” if his friend said something he wasn’t sure about.  There are many stories that about great successful people who become grater than most people I have ever met.  Unless you became a king after being the poorest farmer in the world.
  I think I can relate to them since I want to be grater than I am now.  With more bravery and with more faith whether it’s trusting my friend or lying to the most famous king in the world knowing that it could mean my head.
Would you have been as faithful as these people?
Would you like to read this book?
