A Book About Me

If I were to write a book about me, I'd call it "Dreamer."

I would start by telling the readers about my younger days. I would tell them I was very happy and that I did a lot of fun things. I would write about the time that I grew up with five brothers and one sister. That would make them sometimes happy, sometimes sad because I got in trouble.

Next, I would write about the way I am today. I would say that I enjoy listening to romantic music and travel, and that I would rather not work too much. I would explain that my favorite things in the world are my two beautiful girls and having money to do a lot of things.

Then I would write about my future plans. Someday I would like to be a volunteer working with children.

I would tell my readers that if I had one wish, it would be to be a good writer and a good singer.

I hope that when my readers finish my book, they would think of me as a very fantastic person.
