    The last book i red is "Kafka i la nina que se´n va anar de viatge".
    The author is Jordi Sierra i Fabra,from the editorial "estrella polar".
    I bought the book at eighteen of october,but the library doesn´t
    had the book,so i asked a friend.
    The book is about a man,who is walking in the park,he found a girl and she told to the man
    that she had lost her wrist,then the man explains that his doll was gone on a trip, the man pretends to be a mailman and he is giving letters written by him to the girl.

      Thanks for your suggestion. The plot reminds me to the French film Amélie. If you haven't seen it, I absolutely recommend it!

Grammar: Present tenses

Next lesson, we'll revise the present tenses: present simple and present continuous. At this point, it's very important to be sure about the form of the present simple and continuous. These videos will help you refresh your memory: Form of present simple: (I usually wear a T-shirt and a pair of jeans) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9AWrJnhsRI Form and use of present continuous:  am/is/are + verb-ing (Today I'm wearing a dress) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBbJNjjSYBo&t=8s Remember that we use the present simple to talk about routines , facts or things that are always true and with  stative verbs , such as love, like, understand, believe, etc. and we use the present continuous to talk about actions that are happening now , at this moment, or future plans : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3DH774OxeQ This box with time expressions may be useful:
