Every year, there is a big day for book lovers. It is World Book Day on April 23. Why not read a new book? Reading is a good habit to have in life. It shows you a different world and makes you think differently. Here are some good books Time for Kids picked out. Let's take a look!

    This Side of Wild (2015)

    Gary Paulsen, US

    If you are interested in nature (自然) and animals, this book is for you! This book tells true stories of the writer and some animals he loved. For example, a dog helped Paulsen during a bear attack (袭击), and another time a horse led him across a desert (沙漠). Surprisingly, animals can do many things. You may laugh sometimes. But these touching experiences may also make you cry.

    Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Old School (2015)

    Jeff Kinney, US

    You may have heard of this book series(系列). And this is the 10th book from it. Greg Heffley is a middle school student. He has everyday problems. Now things get even more interesting when his town decides to stop using all electronics (电子产品)! Greg faces some new problems without a mobile phone and computer. This book shows there are always a few bumps (崎岖) in the road, but you can laugh about it along the way too.

    May Day is the day when we celebrate the end of winter and the arrival of spring. It's a time of new life, with new leaves on the trees and wildflowers growing in the woods and fields. On that day, children in Britain and other parts of Europe often make May baskets and hang them on a neighbor's door as a gift of love and friendship.

    Here are the steps of making this kind of basket.

    Step 1 Food paper into a cone（圆锥形） and stick it to keep the shape.

    Step 2 Cut top of the cone with scissors.

    Step 3 Make two holes on opposite sides of the cone. Leave 5cm form the top.

    Step 4 Pass ribbon（彩带） through holes and tie it to create a basket handle.

    Step 5 Fill your basket with different kinds of flowers.
