Dear John,
I was glad to get your letter. Sorry I haven't written for so long. I'm glad you're interested in Russian writers.
So, I can advise you a book to read. As for me, I like reading and I read a lot. Books play a very important role in my life. Most of all I like to read different stories about animals. I hope you will also like them. The language of the book is easy and you won't have any difficulties reading it. The author is M.Prishvin and the book is called "Stories About Animals". By the way, I have an electronic version of the book and I can give it to you if you want.
 Anyway, let me know and keep in touch. As soon as you finish reading it please tell me your opinion. Is the book as great as I suppose?
Drop me a letter when you can.
All the best,
Yours,
