In my view, I think that all of this may be this shiny, in this picture, but actually, Beijing is really smoggy. So, even if people look out of their windows in a plane, they would see a dull, gray, spoked, split, building. So it may give people the wrong idea of what it is supposed to look like. People will think that the airport is drab. Smog makes everything grey. Beijing better clean that pollution!

The Boy at the Top of the Mountain.
The Boy at the Top of the Mountain is a book which is about a boy named Pierrot, later known as Pieter. He turns into an orphan because his mother had tuberculosis, and his father got run over by the train in Paris. He goes to an orphanage, and is taken care of, but also bullied. His auntie, Aunt Beatrix, invited him to live in Hitler's house, the Berghof. This is Hitler's holiday home. He was very busy. But Pieter was 'taken over' by the Fuhrer. He wanted power, instead of being looked down upon. He has a friend called Katarina, but he had a hard time with her. At first, he was a sweet young boy, so they were easily friends. But then, he started getting evil and evil until he turns into mini Hitler. He tried to rape her in the end, and she is saved by Emma, the cook. However, that would cost Emma her job. He tells on his auntie, he tells on everyone. He turns into a quite formidable enemy. It was very dangerous knowing him, and even having a single relationship with him. If you said one wrong thing, you would probably suffer his displeasure.
I would give this book 2.5 stars out of 5, because one half of the book was Pierrot being nice, and the other half was Pieter, the mini Hitler side of Pieter.
Despite that 2.5 stars, I would recommend it to everyone, especially people that want to know more about WW1.
