My favourite sport
My favourite sport is football. I like football because it helps you to learn how to work in a team and how to control the ball. Learning how to play is not hard but learning how to kick the ball and the tricks are hard.
You can play football on a football ground. You need football boots and a football. The goalkeeper needs gloves. At least one sport should be done for a week. If not you will not be healthy.
Football is a famous sport around the world. There are many famous football players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Neymar. These players are some of the best players in the world. Football is also known as soccer.

My favourite author
My favourite author, Elisabeth Dami, is the most qualified children’s author I know. For the last 1 – 2 years I have been highly inspired by how she makes education fun and interesting for every child in Italy and all around the world.
Her imagination is highly motivational for any book lover. Her expressions are so subtle that her advanced language and general knowledge isn’t hard at all to comprehend because her words are very understandable. She shares her feelings in a very strange way in books but it is very funny and has a lot of sense in it. Sometimes I think that her imagination is a little babyish but I can’t help myself from reading her stories.
I am proud of her and I wish I could be someone like her one fine day.
