I see a skate in a cave. 

みなさん、こんにちは。
9月10日は中秋（ちゅうしゅう）の名月でしたね。お月見しましたか。
久ぶりに私の家からもとてもきれいな満月（まんげつ）が見えました。今年は、お天気に恵（めぐ）まれて、お月見日和（つきみびより）だったみたいです。
ところで、みなさん、お月見団子は食べましたか。私は二種類（にしゅるい）も食べてしまいました。お月見団子というだけあって、見た目が「お月様（つきさま）」なんです。少し黄色（きいろ）っぽいお団子（だんご）もあります。
私が食べたお団子は、中に小豆（あずき）が入っていて、その上から甘くない黄な粉（きなこ）を少しかけて食べます。とても美味しいんです。この時期にしか食べられないものです。
もうひとつは、何の味もないシンプルな丸いお団子です。味がほとんどないので、砂糖醤油（さとうじょうゆ）をつけて食べました。黄な粉でも良かったのですが、砂糖醤油をつけて、みたらし団子風に食べました。
「お月見」ということで、街中（まちなか）には、「お月見」商品がたくさんあるんです。
例えば、マック（マクドナルド）の月見バーガー。中に目玉焼きが挟（はさ）んでいて、この時期にしか食べられないバーガーです。マックはそのほかにも、「月見パイ」「月見マックフルーリー」「月見マックシェイク」など、色んな商品（しょうひん）が出ていました。娘は、「月見パイ」がお気に入りのようです。中におもちと小豆（あずき）が入っているようです。
みなさんも、お月見に関連する物を食べましたか。お月見に関連する食べ物は、結構あるんですよ。
ぜひ、探してみてください。

4-Year-Old Signs Book Deal to Publish Poems
A 4-year-old boy from the UK has signed a book deal to publish his collection of poems.

Nadim Shamma-Sourgen was discovered by poet and teacher Kate Clanchy, who won the 2020 Orwell Prize for political writing. Clanchy knew Shamma-Sourgen's mother, who teaches the study of poetry at the University of Reading.

Clanchy began sharing Shamma-Sourgen's poems on Twitter, where they became popular with her followers. Speaking to The Guardian, Clanchy said that she didn't share them because they were like an adult's poems, but because they were so much like a child's way of thinking.

The young poet has now signed a book deal with Walker Books, a children's book company, making him one of the youngest writers to get a book deal.

According to Guinness World Records, Dorothy Straight from the US is the youngest female to publish a book. She wrote a book in 1962 when she was 4 years old. It was published in 1964.

The youngest male writer is Thanuwana Serasinghe from Sri Lanka, who wrote a book when he was 4 years and 9 months old. It was published nine days before his 5th birthday.

In an interview with Sky News, Shamma-Sourgen's mother said that he's still learning to read and write, so he speaks his poems out loud and she writes them down for him.

"I like writing poems especially about nature. I feel happy that my poems will be in a book," Shamma-Sourgen told The Guardian. As well as nature, Shamma-Sourgen's poems talk about things like love, being lonely and bugs in his garden.

The book of poems will be published in summer 2021.
