EVERYBODY LIKES SOME FUN
The teacher Miss Smiley takes her class to the Funfair. All children enjoy it, but not Helen. She is frightened.
She doesn’t want to go
on the roundabout. She even doesn’t
like to ride an elephant or a hippo!
She is not interested in bumper
cars - they are too noisy.
The slide is also not for her!
She would not like to try
swing boats.
The boats which go
down the waterfall look
scary.
And she really hates
the roller coaster!!!

But she is very good at basketball. She wins many lollipops and everybody is really happy.
Thanks to Helen.
You should not make people do things they don't like.
Everyone can find something interesting.
Different people are good at different things.
I like funfairs. I went there with my mum. Most of all I like rollercoaster and bumper cars, because all cars are great. Later I want to drive the car.
ABOUT MYSELF
SUMMARY

Sonia is in England. She writes letters home to her grandma ….
Sonia made friends with the girl called Jen. Jen has some rabbits and they are very nice
Sonia loved the English holiday Guy Fawkes Night.
She liked snow and snowmen.
Sonia went on a school trip to the Queen’s home – Windsor castle.
Grandma misses her very much and she has some great news, too. She can drive the car now!!!
WRITING AND GETTING LETTERS IS VERY EXCITING

I think it’s great to be friends with your grandma. She may tell you a lot of interesting stories about the past, about the place where you live, the people. She remembers some funny things about you – a little kid.
ABOUT MYSELF
Most of all I like the pictures. The best are the pictures of Jen’s rabbits and the horse Prince. I also love animals, but I want to have a dog. I sometimes write letters to my friend in Georgia. I love getting letters from him!
SUMMARY

OLD TIMES
Once upon a time a good and friendly Giant called Finn and
his clever wife Una lived in Ireland.
Suddenly they got some terrible news – an ugly and wicked giant
came to the town and he wanted to find Finn.
Finn was afraid and wanted to run away, but his clever wife had some
good ideas. She did not want to give up, to leave their home and their friends
Una got ready to meet the giant and asked her husband to play the role
of a baby.
The wicked giant did everything Una asked him to do and understood
that Finn was really very big and strong giant. And when he saw Finn in the pram he thought that it was their baby. He got frightened – if the baby is so strong, the father
must look terrible. So he decided to leave the family in piece and go away.
