dad’s name is David. He’s American. He’s tall and a little fat! He’s got short brown hair and
blue eyes. He works in a bank. My sister Shania is 14 and she loves listening to music. She
listens to music all the time! She’s got long brown hair and green eyes, like me. I’ve got long
hair too. We’ve got a pet dog, Brandy. He’s black and white and very friendly.
