My Favorite Thing

My favorite thing from childhood is a book named “Three Days to See” that was written by Hellen Keller, a blind and deaf woman. The book has a nice cover with a picture of a cute girl. My grandmother gave it to me as my tenth birthday gift. I have had it for about three years. I often read it over and over again in my free time. The most important thing I learned from the book is we should be optimistic no matter what difficulties we meet. Nothing is impossible. What we need to do is to make great efforts and never give up. It is educational and has special meaning to me. That is why I like the book best. Wherever I go, I always take it. I believe if I am as strong and brave as the writer, I will be able to change my life and have a good future.
