John is eight years old, and he is a very funny boy. He works hard, so he is good at his subjects. And his teachers and parents like him very much. But he has a very big head. Last year, he spent ten days at his uncle's home on summer holiday. His uncle lives in a mountain village.The village is about a hundred kilometers away from his city.
