3. Write about your favourite book. Use the model below.
My favourite book is Alice in Wonderland. The author’s name is Lewis Carroll. The plot is
about a young girl who has lots of adventures. It’s exciting and funny. It isn’t boring or sad.
I like this book because there are lots of unusual characters.
I think it’s a good book for someone who likes imagining other worlds.
