57. Joe enjoys reading picture books about animals. He often buys some new ones. Last Saturday he bought a new book.

58. Tong Tong is five years and two months old now. His father bought him a story book for his birthday on July 2. Now he is reading “But as the boy grew older he began to want more from the tree, and the tree gave and gave and gave. … ”.
