I finally finished reading "Harry Potter and the Prizoner of Azkaban" yesterday. It took over 2 monthes to read it, but the book is really interesting.
I borrowed the 4th book, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" today. I am very surprised how thick the book is. I can't anticipate when I finish it. But I'd like to read it everyday as much as I can.
I finished reading "What Katy Did". It was a really interesting book. It took about two weeks to read the book. I feel that I can read an English book faster than before.
I started reading "A Little Princess" today. I wanted to buy the book illustrated by Tasha Tudor, but I downloaded the text of it from "Project Gutenberg", and printed. I would like to finish the book by the end of this month.
I'm reading "What Katy Did" in English now. This is one of my favorite books I read when I was a child. But I couldn't remember the detail of the story, so I can read this book as if it is the first time for me.
The expressions in this book seem to be a little outdated and complicated. But I can enjoy the book more and more as the story goes on.
I am reading "Heidi" in English now. It is so interesting that I can read it faster than usual.
When I was a child, a TV cartoon which was based on the story was broadcast. It was really interesting. I remember that I scared Rottenmeier so much. When she appeared, I always went under a table. I felt like being scolded by her.
I have been in UK for 4 weeks when I was twenty years old. It was lovely memory for me, but in those days, I made many mistakes.
I had bad pronunciation, and couldn't say "Thursday" at all.
If I said "Thursday", people asked me "Saturday?" or "Sunday?" and even"Tuesday?". I finally had to say even "the day after Wednesday".
Even after this, I had not known how to pronounce "th" for long time.
I lately bought the book named "GHOST ENGLISH". I happened across this book in the website of Amazon. People told that this was very good book, and I started reading with light feelings.
This book contains not only how to pronounce English but heartwarming story. It was much better book than I thought. I suppose this book should be read by junior high school students who just started learning English, or there will be many students who can't pronounce English well like me.
I ordered this book at Amazon today.
I read the book in Japanese 3 months ago. It gave me big impact.
I was poor at clearing my room. There were many clutters. My room had been messy for long time. I didn't think that it was good, but I didn't know how should I do.
This book taught me about thinking for clutters. I cleard my clutter with great intensity. I sold many things which I didn't need at auction in online. So I got some money.
Now I lent this book my friend so that I can't read it. I thought that I should buy one more this Japanese book. However this book was originally written by English writer, I wanted to read original in English.
I am looking forward to reading this book in English. It will also be good for learning English.
