Sarah Faherty

Check the recommendations below andwhy don’t you try to read books in English?

The Pearl
A young family discovers the greatest pearl inthe sea. Their find is sure to make them rich beyond their wildest dreams, but they are not the
only ones who dream of being rich.
This fantastic, but tragic, story will make you
smile, then cry, and then reflect upon the way
things are in the world.
Also, it will remind youthat there are plenty ofthings more important
than money.
This is a wonderful story
that will move you.

John Steinbeck

FrankensteinWith Halloween soon I want to tell you about
my favourite scary story: the classic tale ofVictor Frankenstein who creates life, and thenregrets it when his family and friends start tomysteriously die soon after.
This incredible tale will
have you biting your nails
as the hunt for Frankenstein’s monster gets
more and more intense. However, by theend of the book you’re left wondering whois worse, the monster or the scientist whocreated him.
Mary ShelleyThis year, I went to my hometown, London, for my summer holiday. I usually only stay for two weeks, but, this year, I decided tospend the whole summer with my family. I love spending timewith my family, but this year is special. My parents celebrated
their 40th wedding anniversary, and we were able to celebrate
together. I enjoyed looking at theirwedding pictures, and my uncles andaunts looked very different in 1971!
While I was in London, I took the chanceto visit some of my favourite London
spots. My favourite place to visit in London
is the Victoria and Albert Museum. It was
built for the world exhibition in 1852 andcontains many art works from all over the world. In the central
courtyard, there is a space to relax, and children can play in thefountain. It’s a very relaxing and peaceful way to spend time. The
best part is that it is free to enter the museum. Actually, many
people don’t realise that most museums in London, such as theBritish Museum and the National Gallery, are free to enter.
I also spent a lot of time running while
I was in London. As I will run the Kobe
marathon in November, I have nochoice! Luckily there is a nice park near
my parent’s house for me to runaround.
I hope you enjoyed your summer holiday, and that you’ll tell me all about it when we meet.

This is a thrilling story that will make you think.
