    I am Steve. I was born and grew up in South Wales. My favourite place to play was out on the hills where my imagination had plenty of space to expand (拓展).

    My family moved out of Wales when I was thirteen. I went to a new school. One of my subjects was

    French. Because I had never learned any French, my teacher told me to sit in the corner and write anything

    I was interested in. That's the time I started writing, just for myself, and I've been writing ever since.

    I have always loved BIG IDEAS, and so I enjoy writing fantastic stories. And I also write horror (恐怖) stories. I think they are like the old fairytales (童话故事), and can teach you important things.

    I am in my forties on the outside, twelve on the inside. I like rock music, Indian and Chinese food, and

    I enjoy drinking. I live in a small village with my wife Mary,ducks,cats, goats,hens and lots of rabbits. If you'd like to find out more about me and hope to buy my books, go to www.sbowkett.freeserve.co.uk.

    Class Five had a school trip last Friday. They spent a day on a big farm. Did the students like the trip? Let's see what they said.

    It was a great trip. It was my first time to see so many animals. I even milked a cow. How interesting! I also picked some strawberries for my mother.

    I will never go to the farm again. It's far away from the city center. And it's dirty. Our teacher asked us to pick vegetables，but I didn't do it. It was really hard work.

    The farm is beautiful. You can find it in my photos. And the farmers are friendly. They cooked delicious food for us. I'd like to go to the farm with my parents next time.
