Dear Lan,
I live in a small house. My house looks very nice. From
my bedroom window, I can see a beautiful park with green trees
and flowers. I don’t live far from my school, so I usually walk
there.
In my neighborhood, there is a swimming pool, a library,
a post office and a beautiful park. I like the library best because I
can study and read many interesting books there.
I would like to say goodbye now.I am looking forward to
hearing from you soon.
Love,
Hoa
