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

Reading in the holiday is a fantastic 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. Tony

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 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. Peter

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 (行星) and experiences a lot. It is not just a fiction story (科幻故事), but tells us about the correct values (价值观). Mary
