for you.Consider these following steps when writing your letter,which will help make your thank-you letter more meaningful and sincere.

八、Growing up with good books
My dear friends,
Reading is very important.We can get knowledge through reading.It can not only open our minds,but also make us cleverer and happier.Our study can be improved if we read more and good books.The more we read,the more we will learn,and the brighter our future will become.
However,some students spend much time in listening to music, watching TV or going on line to play games.It takes much of their spare time.So I would like to suggest that everyone should read more books,especially read classics so that we can spread our Chinese traditional culture to the world.
Let's start reading now.And let it become a part of our life!
