A lot of people have hobbies.

My father also enjoys sailing.

He is teaching me how to sail.
I like to collect things.
I collect comic books, stamps and coins.
I trade comic books with some of my friends, and sometimes I buy comic books at stores.
Some of the very old comic books are worth a lot of money.
I have stamps from all over the world.
Whenever any of my friends get a letter from a faraway place, they save the stamps for me.
I have stamps from England, Japan, Australia and even Russia.
I use a magnifying glass to look at the stamps, and I keep them in a special album.
I don’t have too many coins yet, but I have a very old dime from Canada, and I have a coin with a hole in it from Africa.
