Book Review :)

Today i am going to review this book called Mother's orchids, it starts with Janu he is a little boy who likes to spend time with his brush and paint especially when he wanted to be alone. Janu's painting were full of meaning. He loved painting ever since he was five and his painting is usually about his mother, rivers, animals and orchids, Sometimes he would like to paint his father but unfortunately he had passed away. He does not hang his painting of his father on the wall only the orchids, rivers, etc.

At school his teacher had annouced that ten days left until the day Janu and his classmates go to candi borobudur but something felt off Janu couldn't help but remember he forgot to give her mother the notification letter stating that everyone that wanted to go has to pay a whopping 800 thousand rupiah just for going on the trip. He wanted to tell his mother about the letter but he know that his mother has been through a lot lately and he doesnt wanna bother his mom he cant stop thinking and he kept scratching his head.

When he was cleaning and laughing with his mother a lady passed by and asked "are these orchids for sale?" Janu's heart lit up, he taught to his head "yeay maybe i can sell the orchids with mom and raise the funds for the trip" but his mom said otherwise as she says "thank you for offering ma'am but sadly i cant sell these to you" Janu's heart fell apart the second his mother said that "now how am i supposed to raise the funds" Janu complained to himself he asks his mother "why wont you sell the orchids?" Janu is clueless why his mom wouldnt sell the orchids even though she has a lot of them lying around his mom answers "i cant sell these orchids they meant a lot to me because back then your father loved the song Stalking the Moon Orchid that is why i love orchids", Janu was stunned hearing the story and now he understand why his mother loves orchids so much, He eventually told her mother about the letter but she had already known about it from the whatsapp group, Janu's mother was touched by his honesty and she gave him an idea to sell something on the bazaar coming up at his school but he doesnt know what to sell, He opens his laptop searching for ideas but he cant find any he cried at the desperation of finding the things he want to sell at the bazaar.

At the next morning he finally got an idea he went to Kawasan Kota Lama it is an old area of town that became an icon for Semarang City he found many unique item and he found an art gallery that gave him the idea to sell paintings at the bazaar, The same night he worked tirelessly he was making cards, pictures of the view, flowers and anything that came out of his mind, Janu also wrote quotes and made many variety of cards that he could sell.
