I finished reading this year's first book "The Little Witch" in English. The book is for children written by my favorite German author, Tfried Preussler. It is interesting, but I cannot find his any books in foreign publishers. So, I bought it from a Japanese publisher. I have a memory about the book.

When I was a college student, I had been learning German as my third language for two years. I already forgot it since I have not used the language after graduation. However, while I had been learning German, the book written in German was my textbook. I had learned grammar from the book. It was my first book to read in German. I have an experience that once I visited to German, I bought a wooden small Christmas ornament of the witch there. I have still kept it and put it in my kitchen cabinet. So, I have thought someday I would like to read the book in English again. That is because both the story and the illustration of the book are very cute.

After I kept on reading, I remembered many things that relates to my college days. Today I called one of my college friends who took the same German class with me. I also went to German with her. We talked about the days when we were young for one hour. We also exchanged our current information. I like talking with my friends who has been friends with me since we were students. We can get back the days when we were young easily. We have lots of memories that we can share. I would like to appreciate the book because thanks to the book, I enjoyed a reunion with my friend.
