Thank you for your information.
I will read William Saroyan's My Name Is Aram.
I searched for the book by using some library's searching systems.
I couldn't find it out even at the National Diet Library.
So I'll buy it.

>>And I'd like to introduce you to another speech.

2番目のビデオをSevernのスピーチと同列のように並べたのが良くなかったかもしれません。
でも、この赤ちゃんが将来大統領になったりして…
このビデオを紹介したのは、私自身が子供のように言葉を吸収したいと思っていて、こうゆうのを見ると元気付けられるのです。同じようなかたがいるかもと思って紹介しました。

See you! ♪Happy reading♪
