My hobby is reading books. I like reading
comic books. When reading a book, I often

reading it carefully to enjoy every detail of it.
I often read whenever I have free time or
before I go to bed. At the moment, I am
reading “ Trang Quynh” written by Kim
Khanh. The main character of the book is
Quynh. He is a lovely boy who always helps
other people. He is very smart and witty.
