Chapter 1 Our

Family

Hello, my name is Rex. I am a puppy. I live in a big house with my family. I have got a mother, a father, a sister and a brother.

My mother’s name is Matilda, she is a very beautiful dog. She is а famous singer. My father’s name is Arnold, he is very strong, and he is a border guard.

I am the oldest brother and I am nine months old. My sister’s name is Betsy, she is six months old. My little brother is one month old. His name is Timmy.

We are German Shepherds. I have got black fur, but my paws are dark yellow. My sister Betsy is black too, but she has got a yellow face. My little brother Timmy has got yellow ears and black fur.

Betsy and I are pupils, we go to school. I am in the third grade, and Betsy is in the first grade. Timmy doesn’t go to school because he is too small.

My favorite food is meat. My sister likes to eat ice-cream. My little brother’s favorite food is candy toffee.

I like sports a lot. I want to be big and strong like my father. My sister likes to dance, she can dance very well. Our little brother Timmy is too lazy. He doesn’t like any sport. He likes to sleep and eat a lot of candy.

I love our family!
