I am writing to recommend a book whose called ‘How to be Animal Friendly’, which I read recently.

This is a book for young people who are interested in animals but don’t know much about them It has great cartoons and photographs and is packed with them facts about the relationship between people and animals There are written chapters on vegetarianism, wearing fur and leather and endangered animals It is written in such a way that it helps you for to see things from the animals’ viewpoint In some places, this book was so much sad that I wanted to put it down, but on the whole it is fun to read As well as facts about the animals mostly themselves, there is also information about what cruel people do to animals, and how people use animals for different things

in various parts of the world It also tells you how animals have been saved people’s lives For example, I was amazed to read the exciting story of how three wild bears saved a five-year-old girl when she got lost in the woods I thought this book was excellent and would definitely recommend

it as for anyone over seven years old who wants to know more about animals

But how did this tradition begin?

Great Escapes from London

For Londoners with a busy lifestyle, it’s hard to get away even for a day, but

Amanda Hyslop spoke to five different women who regularly do exactly that.

A Julia Finch is a busy lawyer who loves nature

but doesn’t get nearly enough of it sitting in her

London office all day, so she often takes

advantage of Wisley Garden, only an hour’s

drive from Central London “My favourite

thing is that there is always something new to

see The garden collection has been developing

for more than 100 years and far surpasses

anything I’ve ever seen It’s a lovely, peaceful

place for a stroll, and it’s so vast that it doesn’t

get crowded I get ideas for my own gardens

from the great demonstration garden full of

practical ideas and techniques I can even

incorporate my other favourite hobby of

photography by bringing my camera and

clicking away It’s perfect for a great day out.”

C Martha Roberts is an architect who enjoys

her job so much that her work is also her hobby “My favourite piece of architecture to study in my free time is The Royal Pavilion in Brighton I try to get some of my co-workers to

go with me, since it isn’t all that far from London, but they’re usually too busy The Pavilion was built for King George IV and if ever a building represented the concept of

“over the top”, this is it The pseudo Indian palace, with Chinese-influenced interiors, is a riot of colour, expensive fabrics, crystal and gilt It’s not the sort of style I would ever like

in my own house, but I do find inspiration for

my work in everything I look at.”

Trang 6

B Jessica Green is a hardworking student who

needs a break from the books once in a while,

and makes Brighton her favourite one-day

destination “I love being by the sea, and it’s

so close to London that whenever I feel like it,

I just jump on a train and in 55 minutes I’m

there Brighton evolved from a small fishing

village into England’s most famous seaside

resort, and offers all the traditional attractions,

including restaurants, nightlife, miles of sandy

beaches and two piers I always eat at this

great self-service restaurant, which is also

modestly priced My favourite spot, though, is

a small strip of sand under one of the piers,

where I can just sit all alone and hear nothing

but the sea.”

D Flora Evan, a market analyst, feels she

deserves an expensive treat after a busy week, which is why she often takes time to get away

“I go to Bath to visit my favourite luxury spa and enjoy the pools, which are fed by Britain’s only natural hot springs Sitting in the pool, with only the soft, gentle sound of moving water, is the ideal way to relax And of course,

a day of pampering is never complete without some shopping Bath is one of the best shopping destinations outside London with many specialist shops and a number of antique shops tucked away in the narrow streets A good souvenir to buy is hand-blown glass, which takes its blue colour from the city’s hot springs.”
