The Enchanted Garden

I am reading the book called "The Enchanted Garden" which was written by Italo Calvino. As I have read the story, I think the story takes place in the enchanted garden which is impossible for the real life. The author was trying to say that “Life sucks” Whether you are rich or poor, your life might not be perfect. Everyone will have a bad time. In the story, two children were not happy to play in this enchanted garden because they have to be careful of other people who would come and catch them. Also the boy that lived in the beautiful house was sick and as we know that when people are sick, they will feel terrible, so the boy was not happy as same as those two children.
When I read this story, I used a reading strategy called "I think about what I know to help me understand what I read", so Serenella did everything that Giovannino said. And the second one called "I also have a purpose in my mind what I read", when Giovannino said that there’s a train coming, but as I have read through the story, that was just a sound of the train.
