One day I was bored, I opened my grandmother’s wardrobe. There were a lot of coats in the wardrobe. I wore a red coat and I looked in the mirror to see how I looked. Oh my God! I can’t see myself in the mirror. I was shocked. I ran to the kitchen. My mum cooked in the kitchen, but she can’t see me. I ate cake that was on the table.

Hello, I am Yusuf Damar. I started to fast in this Ramadan like my family. I learned that the fast isn’t just about being hungry. One day I was playing a game with my friends. My friend said bad words to me. Then he pushed me and tried to start a fight. I was so angry. I raised my hand to hit my friends.

My best friend came to stay with us in Ramadan. We were having so much fun together. My friend said, “Shall we watch a movie until sahoor?” I said: “Okay, Ceylin” and we turned on the computer to choose a movie together. We chose the movie together. Then we popped popcorn.

Today is the fourteenth day of Ramadan. I am so happy. Because we are coming together with my family at Çamlıca Mosque. We go there at four o’ clock. My father parks the car. Then we go to the park at Çamlıca Mosque. I play tag with my sister Then we play hide and seek. I usually win. I am the best at this game.

Steve was born on February 22, 1962 in Eseden, Australia. His parents’ names are Lyn and Rob. Steve was 6 years old when he first caught a python and 9 years old when he caught a big crocodile.

I watched a video about an equestrian. An equestrian is a person who rides horses. Her name is Esme. In the mornings, she starts feeding her racing horse. She sprays down her horses because she notices the flies. She also applies sun cream for her horses. She is careful not to ride her horse Casper because the temperature is too hot. 

I want to be a vet when I grow up. I want to heal animals. I will tell about a vet’s life. First, they have to be careful to animals since childhood. They study in high school to enter a vet university. When they start it, they study for five years. They observe animals and learn about the biology of them.

My character’s name is Charlie. He is a bug healer. He is nine years old. Why does he do this job at this age? Because his father was a bug healer, too. First he was very afraid of his brother. Then he overcame his fear. He heals bugs’ wings. If they are ill, he looks after them. He does other things with bugs.

“Fasting in Ramadan teaches patience.” I read these lines in a magazine. Then I thought, “What can I be patient with in the future?” So I started thinking…What do we do when our life becomes difficult?

Twelve years later, I was living in a villa and preparing for the evening. This month was the month of the sultan of the eleven months and I invited all my secondary school friends. Today, I also invited my cousin to visit us from Italy, because she knew my secondary school friends. Iftar was approaching and I completed all the preparations.
