📖 Reading
My name is Lucas. I am a big fan of movies and music. My sister Mia is a fan too, but she likes different things.
On Friday nights, my family and I are usually at home. There is a big TV in our living room, and we watch movies together. My favorite movies are action movies. There are a lot of cars and heroes in them. Mia's favorite movies are musicals because the songs are great.
I have got a guitar, and I am not very good at it yet, but I practice every day. My best friend, Tom, is in a band. He is a good singer, and his band is popular at our school. Tom and his friends are on the stage every Friday at lunchtime.
This weekend, there is a new movie at the cinema. It is an action movie with a lot of music in it. Mia and I are excited! We are ready for popcorn and a fun afternoon. The actors are famous, and the songs are from a great singer. Our parents are happy too because the tickets are cheap on Saturdays.
