My House and My Family

Hello! My name is Tom. This is my house. It is big and cool. In my house, there is a living room, a kitchen, and two bedrooms. There is a garden behind the house and a garage next to the kitchen.

In the living room, there is a sofa and two armchairs. There are a big table and a TV on the wall. That poster on the wall is of my favourite band. These cushions on the sofa are very soft.

My bedroom is upstairs. There is a bed, a desk, and a wardrobe. On my desk, there are my laptop computer and my mobile phone. That is my mountain bike in the garage.

I have got a sister and a brother. My sister, Anna, has got long, curly red hair. She is very clever and helpful. My brother, Max, has got short, spiky blond hair. He is funny and friendly.

These are my parents. My mum has got wavy, dark hair. My dad has got straight brown hair. My parents have got a big car.

Look at this picture! Those are my grandparents. My granddad has got a funny cap. My granny has got a nice dress. They are on holiday in Spain. Are they Spanish? No, they are British!

We have got a pet too. It is a dog. Its name is Bingo. Bingo has got four legs and a long tail. His ears are very big!

Come to my house! There is a party in the garden. Would you like a sandwich? Yes, please! Where is the bathroom? It is next to the living room. Let me show you.

Sorry about that! I am so sorry—the dog is on the sofa! Are you OK? Yes, I’m fine. No problem!
