Discover the Joy of Reading!
I am 11 years old, my name is Nila and I live in Chennai. I love reading.
I read a lot of fiction books, a few non - fiction books, educational books and mythological books. My love of reading is so high and it gets higher with every book I read. I am keen to read all types of books.

THE LITTLE ME
I am 10 years old and I was born in London. I love sports and music, but most of all reading. I also like other activities such as tennis, playing the piano and singing.
MY FAMILY
I live with my mum and dad. I have two cousins in Cardiff whom I love to spend time with. I have many family members around the world and most of them live in India.
MY FRIENDS
I have a lot of friends and many of them are from my school in London. I used to like playing with my friends during school. In India, me and my friends go outside together with our families.
MY SCHOOL
I used go to a state school in London. Now I am studying in Chennai. I learn many interesting subjects; my favourite being science.
MY INTERESTS
Obviously my main interest is reading books but apart from that I am interested in science, where things are very logical and interesting. I also like Geography, as exploring, travelling and learning about new places is facsinating. Along with learning about places, another think I enjoy a lot is learning languages. At school I learn Tamil (the language spoken in Tamil Nadu, a state in India) as my second language and Hindi as my third language. I also learn French.
I love sports, my favourites being Tennis and Basketball. Other than that I enjoy running a lot.
I also love art. There are so many things to do from scribbling with your pencil to creating wonderful paintings and drawings. The other thing I love is that there's no specific method, nobody can judge your painting because it's your work done in your way.
Singing and piano are also things I learn and enjoy.
MY CITY
Chennai has some fascinating places to visit and amazing views. Even though it gets hot, I do not mind. My favourite time of the year in Chennai is Deepavali as we get to have a lot of fun, wear new clothes and burst crackers. Oh yes, and I like summer for one reason - the mangoes.
