SHERLOCK HOLMES

THE  BLUE  DIAMOND

.

Hello, my name is sergio and this summer I read a book in english. His name is Sherlock Holmes and the blue diamon, 
It´s a book of level A1 - A2. His author is very famous, is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, famous in all the word. The original lenguage is english and  I read an adaptation with lower level of Bill Bower. The editorial is Oxford University Press and the date of the publication was in 2002.
What is the genre of the book? Comedy, action, mystery ... 

It is a mystery story.
The action takes place in London

His characters are: Dr. Watson is a friend of Sherlock Holmes. Sherlock Holmes is a detective. Peterson is a keeper. Mr. Henry Baker is the owner of the hat and the goose. Condesa Morcaris own blue diamond. John Horner is a man repairing windows. Mr. Windigate owns the Alpha bar. Mr. Breckinridges is a man selling geese. James Ryder is the man who stole the blue diamond.

The book tells the history of Sherlock Holmes, the best detective in the word. He is an intelligent man. He was once rich and is now poor. His wife loved him once but she 
doesn´t love him now. And he is thirty or forty years old.

one look at an old hat, and sherlock holmes can tell you a lot about its owner. he sees (and thinks) a lot more than the people around him, and when a beautiful blue diamond disappears, shelock holmes is the only man in london  who can find out who is the thief, of this valuable diamond.

Personal opinion: I like this book because I like these types of books, mistery and acction.

I recomend this book to everybody
