Or a song that changes your whole life? These all happened to Ronnie, the main character of the book The Last Song (2009). It was written by United States author Nicholas Sparks. Since Ronnies parents divorced (离婚) when she was 14, she had been staying with her mom in New York. Her father, who used to be her piano teacher, lived alone in North Carolina. She was so angry with her dad that she had not talked with him or played the piano ever since they divorced. However, the summer before she turned 18, her mom sent her to North Carolina. At first, Ronnie was frustrated about it. But things changed when her dad found some turtle (海龟) eggs. She learned more about the turtles at the local aquarium (水族馆) and set up a cage to protect the eggs.The turtle broke the tough（坚固的）wall between Ronnie and her dad. However, it was on the day the eggs hatched（孵化）that Ronnie found out her dad was dying of cancer. That was why her mom asked her to visit him. Ronnie was very upset. She started playing the piano again and wrote a song for him before he died. Ronnie deeply impressed me. Though she looks rebellious (叛逆的) in the book, she is gentle. She even slept outside the whole night just to protect the turtle eggs. She loves her father.It is a meaningful story. It teaches us about the relationship with our parents and how to express love to our parents.41 .
