CYP Now - My Life: Hannah Collin, 7, Essex

My favourite subject at school is history. The reason I like it is that it was for the first time I realised I wrote four pages without stopping. It was like being a builder and cementing four bricks all in one go without stopping.

After I finished I had a really bad neck-ache and it felt like my headwas glued down.

I told my teacher I didn't want to stop - I wanted to do more. But hetold me to go and play with my friends. I told my friends and they saidit wasn't fair - I definitely didn't think it was fair.

I love writing. I especially like writing stories. I do it when I thinkof a topic, then I think of something to go with that topic - butsometimes then I change my mind. It's like going into a pet shop andtrying to choose what breed of dog to have ... there are just too manychoices.
