Reading aloud in different languages during Europe's week

In May, during Europe's Week students of different natonalities have read parts of the same book - "How much is friendship worth?" in Portuguese, Cape Verdean, French, English, Ukrainian and Spanish.This activity was held at EB n2 da Lousã school library for students, teachers and parents.

This is one of the parts chosen and translated by Isabella Green, an English student attending our school:

           Mary has got a book                                                                                                                                                                                       

Mary, how much is your book worth to you?

It does not have a price, it is my book.

It has all the stories of the world

And, if I do not like its ending,

I can change it, only invent it


In “How worthy is a friendship?”
