-Hello as you all know my name is Sònia and today I’m going to talk about some cartoons which made us laugh when we were kids.

First I’m going to talk about “Tom and Jerry”, then about “Les tres bessones” or “The triplets” and finally I’m going to talk about “Shin Chan”.

Tom and Jerry

Tom and Jerry is an American Cartoon.

The characters are Tom and Jerry.

Tom is a cat and Jerry is a mouse and they both live in the same house.

They don’t speak, so it means that you have to interpret whatever they do.

Tom always tries to catch Jerry because it’s his work/job, although he rarely gets Jerry because Jerry is faster, smaller, more intelligent and moreover Jerry can hides himself anywhere.

Normally Tom prepares traps to catch Jerry but then Jerry tries to take revenge and he always gets it.

Sometimes they live like friends although it’s not the normal way.

Shin Chan

It’s a Japanese cartoon.

The main characters are Shin Chan, a five years old boy, iroxi, missae, himawari and nevat. Moreover there are his friend kasama, botxan, masao, nene… And the teachers yoxinaga and matsusaka.

Shin Chan is a very naughty child and his parents and teachers are always angry with him.

The thing he likes the most are all the girls that he sees.

And the thing he hates the most is the pepper.

As I said before he has a dog called nevat but he always forgots to takes care of him.

His favorite TV program is Ultraeroi.

Les “tres bessones” or “the triplets”

It’s a Catalan cartoon.

The characters are three small girls called Ana, Tresa and Helena, and a witch with her owl.

When the witch is bored, she sends the triplets into a tale, and then they have to help the main character of these tales to solve his/her problems, although the witch doesn’t want it and tries to make them fail.

 Fortunately she never get it and tales always have a happy end.

In Conclusion, the one I prefer when I was little was the triplets because I learnt lots of stories…

And that’s all…I hope you have enjoyed…And have you got any question?
