I am Tom from Canada and reading is my favorite. I can read both French and English books. The Mysterious Stranger(神秘陌生人) is one of the most exciting books I have ever read. It is very funny and it will make you laugh out loud.
The story happens in New York, America and it’s all about a man called Harry who meets a stranger one day while eating his lunch in a park. The stranger Mervin changes Harry’s life forever successfully. I won’t tell you how—you will have to read the story yourself to find out. Mervin has special magic (魔法), but he uses the magic only when Harry gets into trouble which he often does.
It’s not difficult to read the book. It moves at a fast pace (节奏) and lots of things happen on every page so you won’t get bored reading it. Though you might get a bit tired of Harry as he seems to never learn his lesson and keeps on making the same mistakes. I won’t tell the ending for you, but if you enjoy a good mystery and a good laugh, you will completely enjoy this book.
Mr. First has written two other books called The Lonely Child and Whispering Mountain. But I think this book is his best. I highly recommend (推荐) Mysterious Stranger to you!

My favorite book is A Friend like Henry. It’s about how a family dog helps a boy deal with his autism(孤独症). When I felt sad, my best friend gave me the book. It cheered me up.

Reading in the holiday is an interesting thing. Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea is my favorite book. It’s about a captain’s travel under the sea. The story is very interesting and the pictures are fantastic. This book can make you relaxed.

I like reading the Four Great Classical Novels of China although I’m a foreigner from Sydney. I can’t wait to tell the story The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. It taught me a lot about the three kingdoms(王国) of Wei, Shu and Wu. If you are interested in history, don’t miss it.

In my opinion, The Little Prince is the best one. In this book, a young prince(王子) falls to Earth from a small planet and experiences a lot. It’s not just a fiction story, but tells us about the correct values.

【推荐3】This is a story of everyone.
A long time ago, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play with it every day. But as time went by, the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree.
One day, the boy came back to the tree.
“Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy.
“I’m no longer a kid. I can’t play with you now,” the boy replied, “I need toys.” “Sorry, I don’t have any. But you can pick all my apples and sell them.”
The boy picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. He didn’t come back. The tree was sad. The other day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited.
“Come and play with me,” the tree said.
“I need a house for my family. Can you help me?” “You can cut off my branches to build your house.”
So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left happily.
The tree was glad to see him happy, but the boy didn’t come since then. The tree was lonely again. One hot summer day, the boy came back again after he left for so many years.
“Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have anything for you anymore.”
“I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I’m tired after all these years,” the boy replied. “Good! Please sit down with me and have a rest.”
The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears.
