The Three Things I like About Fall

The leaves on the trees change different colors. I like the different colors. The weather is a lot cooler. I enjoy the cooler weather, and they don't have to deal with the hot weather. I like to rake the leaves and play in them. I also like to throw the leaves.

A Book About Me

If I were to write a book about me, I'd call it "Life and Times of Sandra."

I would start by telling the readers about my younger days. I would tell them I was very shy, and that I did a lot of silly things. I would write about the time that I fell off a balcony patio and almost died. That would make them feel bad.

Next, I would write about the way I am today. I would say that I enjoy embroidery and taking walks, and that I would rather not clean my house. I would explain thatmy favorite things in the world are my stuffed animals, my children and my boyfriend.

Then I would write about my future plans. Someday I would like to go to Hawaii.

I would tell my readers that if I h ad one wish it would be to go live in Alaska.

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