请认真阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

Alex (Athens)   My favourite book is Just Kid: Pictures, Poems and other Silly Animal Stuff just for kids by Bonnie Louise Kuchler. There are animal poems that are cute and funny. If you like animals, you will like this book.

Evan (Greece)   The River by Gary Paulsen is the sequel to Hatchet. The book begins when Brian returns home after surviving a plane crash(坠毁)and living in the Canadian wild. Brian is asked to return to the wilderness with Derek. The writer makes you feel like you are there in the story. 

Larry (Ireland)   I’ve read lots of books, but my favourite so far is Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls. It’s a story of a boy who wants some hunting dogs, and that’s what he gets. Later on in the story, something magical happens. You need to read and find out what it is.
