Роль книги в моей жизни – The role of a book in my life

Our teacher tells that books can answer on many our questions, force to think and empathize heroes. I am very fond of reading books of modern writers such as Rasputin, Belov, Astafev; they tell about our contemporaries, show, how children act in this or that situation, what problems are rising before them.

I like very much the hero of the story of ValentineRasputin”Lessons of French”. The writer shows a talented boy with a difficult life. The power of a child amazes me. I was amazed with a phrase of the boy that

He could not imagine to come to school without homework.

desk that those will allow to copy, will help on test.
