Lesson 28  A birthday party

Text

Yesterday was my little brother’s birthday. He was ten years old. We held a big party for him. We asked some of his classmates to come over. We bought hamburgers and chaps, and of course a big birthday cake. The kids were very happy. They sang, danced and played games together. They had a lot of fun. My little brother received many gifts from our parents and his friends. It was very meaning for birthday for him. Next year we will hold a birthday party for him, too. I think young kids should really enjoy their birthdays.
