10 задание.

Languages and literature.

People can’t live without expressing themselves. Some are good at drawing, some at dancing, others at singing or writing. Literature is one of those forms of expression of human experience through language. We can’t imagine our life without books. They taught us so many things that we can use in real life today. They teach us morals, empathy, social behavior, etc. Literature helps to understand what’s right and what’s wrong. Literature opens up many doors for people. We need to read more and to discover these opportunities.

Alan Alexander Milne (1882-1956)

Milne was born in London in 1882. He studied mathematics at Trinity College at Cambridge University, but his dream was to become a writer.

He began his writing career when he was still at college, being published in the school magazine, the Granta. Later he became the editor of this magazine. After graduating he got the position of assistant editor in the Punch magazine.

He got married in 1913. His wife’s name was Dorothy, and her home nickname was Daphne. They became the parents of Christopher Robin Milne in 1920.

It was Daphne that suggested to her husband that he write children’s stories about their son’s toy animals. The first book had the title When We Were Very Young. It was published in 1924. Winnie-the-Pooh followed in 1926. In 1927 Now We Are Six was published, and then the last of the Pooh books, The House at Pooh Corner, came in 1928.

Milne wrote many literary works; among them are detective stories and very successful plays. But he obtained the world’s fame due to his children’s stories. He could never understand the fact.
