My story

Hi, this is Matthew speaking;

I feel that I should help most people, especially the ones in LEDC (lesser economically advanced countries) to really excel in life. I am being incredibly encouraged by my green school teacher, Gillie Howarth. if there is anyone that I owe this page to, it is her. I am also trying to raise money by the amount of books I read, so on top of the £5 to any-number-above-zero, may you please also donate around 50p to £2-3 for every book I read. This is all going to a charity called Egmont trust, a charity situated in north-east africa. 

So far I have read exactly 37 & 3/4 books.

I reccomend these books:

 

I am the Great Horse, by Katherine Roberts

The Call of the Wild, by Jack London

White Fang, (only 3/4 of the way through) by Jack London

 

Thank you, Matthew Chattwell, age 11
