This address is still very familiar and kind to me now, because since I learned to write, my parents have been urging me to write to my grandfather, and I have to write the envelope myself. This house is very big. There are four people in our big family. Grandpa and we live in this room on both sides of the hall. There are six people living in the front and back rooms. Grandpa is the only one in the front and back room, and there are shelves full of books. There became my paradise ... ".
