2 my father walked into the room, my brother cowered (畏缩) slowly. He sensed that he had done something 3. From a distance I could see that he had 4my father's new book and scribbled (乱画) in it. Now, looking at my father in 5, he and I both waited for his punishment.

He was a clergyman（牧师） and for him, books were 8 .What he did next was unbelievable.

John s work, 1959, age 2. How many times have I looked into your beautiful face and into your warm, alert (警觉的) eyes looking up at me? And how many times have I11God for the one who has now scribbled in my new book?
