Two days in one post:  
**🍂🍁 October 12 🍁🍂** [home post link🏡](https://community.wanikani.com/t/read-every-day-challenge-fall-2022/58733/33)

I forgot to post on the 12th, but I did read stuff! I read 11ぴきのねこ, a story about 11 cats who catch a big fish and eat it. I didn’t understand every word in the book, but I got enough to figure out what was going on. Also, I love cats.

**🍂🍁 October 13 🍁🍂**

I read another page of ごんぎつね. It took a whole hour to read one page, just cause I looked up nearly every word .-. Maybe this book is a little too difficult for my level right now. Oh well, I’ll just take my time and read it slowly lol. Anyway, one thing I learned is what すすき is. すすき is Japanese pampas grass, which looks like this:

It took me a while to get through it lol with how much I had to look up words to understand what was going on. So far, all I’ve got is that this is a story about ごん, who is a mischievous little fox that lives near a mountain. I might have to focus more on just reading rather than translating every single thing that I don’t know, and fill in the blanks with context clues. I’m enjoying the pretty drawings in the book though! And it’s been a ton of fun to read, even though it’s only been one page.

Feels? Oh no this is a sad story isn’t it. ☹ I like the fox, I don’t want anything to happen to ごん. I’m at the part where it rains for 3 days and ごん walks along the stream. My friend mentioned that this was one of their favorites as well. I’m happy I have the chance to read this story especially if the two of you both really liked the story. 😃
