The story about a person who is David Copperfield.When he was a boy, he lived with his mother, but one day, his mother married again, his happy life suddenly changes. His step-father is cruel to him and sends him away to school. In the fact, he doesn't like the school and doesn't want to leave home.
When David's mother dies, his step-father doesn't want to spend money for him, so he stops David's education and sents him to work. David arrives in London, but he hates his job so he runs away.He has no money for food or for travelling. Then, he remembers he has a aunt who is his father's sister, and he wants find his aunt.
In his aunt's house, he begins a new life. His aunt sents him to study law with a person, therefore he meets his wife and makes some new friends.He becomes a happy man, and he marries Dora who is his lover. But when they are married, Dora is always unhappy, because she doesn't know about housework, and then her illness leads to her death.
David is very sad about this, so he travels a lot of countries, because he wants to forget everything.

I like this book. Sometimes a lot of things change in your life, but you should be keep an optimistic view, like David Copperfield.

  1. Well done Bella, you have clearly worked hard on this an enjoyed the book.

    It is good that you use paragraphs and word like 'and' 'so' 'but' and 'because'

    Very well done.

    Some small corrections:

    “his step-father doesn't want to spend money for him”

    We say to spend money on (someone)

    “His aunt sents him to study law with a person, therefore he meets his wife”

    His aunt sends him

    A person who studies law is a ‘lawyer’.

    I think ‘and’ is better than ‘therefore’ here because the events are not really connected.
