I like to read books very much.My favourite writer and poet is A. S. Pushkin.My favourite Pushkin’s poem is “Poltava”, but I like to read his poem «Ruslan and Lyudmila» too.My sister is in the second form but she likes to read Pushkin’s works too.Most of all she likes fairy-tales.Her favourite fairy-tale is “The Tale About Tsar Saltan”.My sister likes to read other fairy-tales too.Her favourite tales are “Cinderella”, “The Snowwhite and the seven Dwarfs”, “The Sleeping Beauty” and others.In our home library we have more than 500 books.There are works by Pushkin, Gogol, Tolstoy, Turgenyev and other writers.We also have books by English writers, and among them plays by Shakespeare, historical novels by Walter Scott, detective stories by Conan Doyle.We have books on science, art and nature too.But often I go to the school library.Most of all I am interested in books on science.Now I am reading a book about famous English scientist Charles Darwin.I do not like to read books in the reading room, so I prefer to take them out from the library.My father is a teacher, and he often goes to Korolenko Library in the centre of the city.It is a very big library and it has many thousands of various books.
