About this ebook

Literature is something fun to be discussed. Through literature we can learn about life, and many literary works inspire people with life lessons and inspirations. On the other hand, we can also share our life stories to others through literature. Literature can be a tool of sharing our expression, opinion, imagination, or even messages. We can send our messages through poems or stories, and the messages will be received by the readers. Some people also have amazing experiences they would like to share with others. These experiences might be the answers to the problems of others.

This book is an output of the Introduction to English Literature in Language Education Course. In this course the students learn literary works such as short stories, poems, plays, and novels. At the end of the course they are given a task to create their own literary works, one of which is short story. The short stories in this book are their original works, even though some are probably inspired by popular ones. Most of them are fictional, but some are based on true stories.
