1. Which books does Lane like? Why?

2. Which books does Lane dislike? Why?

I love to read books,
It’ my cup of tea.
Books are full of ideas,
Don’t you agree?

Books can teach and excite,
Books can comfort and thrill,
Books can show you the world,
And will make you feel.

Funny books make me laugh,
Romances make me cry,
Adventure books make me happy,
I don’t know why.

Thrillers bore me to death,
Fantasy is good fun.
And I can’t stand science fiction,
Don’t give me one.

All those robots and fights,
And alien ships,
Make me cry at night,
Make me work in my sleep.

Books will never let down,
Books will never mislead,
When you make a new friend,
Ask him “What do you read?”
