He asked to Stanley to tell him the wishes that he wanted the most. Stanley didn’t know what wishes he want to. So, he thought about it a long long time. 
Comments about my reading:
I think that the story was to much classical and that the pages that I read were not original. I didn’t like it because it wasn’t the first time that I read a book or that I heard about the magic lamp and the genie that comes out and asks us 3 wishes. I also think that the story wasn’t for secondary 1 students because it’s was too easy to understand. So, I didn’t like the pages that I read.
