Amanda Taylor
Hi, there! I’m Amanda Taylor and I’m 12 years old.
My family and friends call me Mandy. I was born on 23rd
November. I’m short and thin and I’ve got black hair
and black eyes. I’m very talkative but hard-working. I’m
5 Welsh and I live in Cornwall with my parents and my
older brother, Steve. My parents are from Glasgow,
Scotland, but they love to live here. We’ve got a pet: a
nice friendly dog called Prince.
In my family we are all very different, but we like
10 doing activities together. At the weekend we often go to
the cinema or we ride our bikes along the river.
My father is a musician. He plays in the Cornwall Concert Orchestra. He loves reading and
listening to classical music. My mother is an actress. She likes running in the park in her free
time. She also likes reading adventure books.
15 My brother and I go to the same school, but we are in different classes because he is in year
9 and I’m in year 7. Steve is 14 years old and he loves sports. He plays basketball in the school
team. I prefer to have fun with my friends. We sometimes meet in my house and we play video
games, listen to music and dance.
