I believe that electronic books are more exciting than traditional books because they are funnier and if you want, you can listen to them.Traditional books are more expensive than the electronic books, but if you are reading an electronic book, the only danger is that the battery may finish.Also the electronic books save trees because they don’t need paper for their pages.
A2-level EFL students in Maria Markaki school have decided to share a blog and create exciting projects on it. Stay tuned for what is coming next!

Little Women
A few days ago Mrs Christina gave me a very interesting book, called Little Women.
The book is about four young sisters -Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy- who have problems. The girls live with their mum, Mrs March. Their father, Mr March, is away in the war . They don't have much money, but they are a happy family!
I had a great time reading this book. I recommend this book to everyone.

A fantastic book
The title of the book was "Amazon Rally". It was written by Eduardo Amos and Elisabeth Prescer. In this story two friends from England, go to Brazil for a motorcycle race. Their names are Brian and David. The race starts well but when they get into the woods of the Amazon, Indians stop them! Indians think they are miners and they want to kill them. But the two drivers explain who they really are. Indians understand and they let them free. They explain their problem with the miners. Then Brian runs to the police station to inform the policemen about the miners who want to kill the Indians. The police come to the village and stop the miners. Then the two drivers continue their race and finish. But not first or second, last of all. But with the notice to the police, they saved the Indians' village.
That was a great story and I loved it! I again wish you all the best for the new year and enjoy the last five days of holidays!

CHAPTER 1 The wolf-pack hunts
The land was covered with snow and it was silent.Into the still lifeless landscape broke the sounds and movements of life -of dogs breathing and calling other dogs.Lots of dogs were pulling the long sled.
When the far-north of Canada freezes, it controls everything that lives and grows there.The strong and the clever ones live ,while the weak die.
Suddenly, a cry cut through the frozen silence. The two men looked at each other, but they said nothing.Then a second and a third cry, came from all around.
" They're after us ,Bill" said Henry who was in front of the sled.But the wolves came closer at night.
"How many dogs do we have?"
"You know we've got six ,but why are you asking?" Henry said.
" I'm sure that I saw seven pairs of eyes when I threw them meat"...
