My name is Peter. My close friend, Hoang gave me a comic book on my birthday. I really like the story in the comic. It is called “The starfruit tree”. It is a story about two brothers. The main characters are two boys. One of them was very friendly and the other was not. They didn’t have a happy ending. It taught me a lesson about how to treat my brother and sister in real life. I will help my brother and sister so that we will all be happy together.
