https://eltbuzz.com/video/?video=diary-of-a-disappointed-book

Why is the book disappointed ? 

The book is disappointed because its reader forgot it at the cinema.

In December it arrived and it was unwrapped but it was left on the floor next to the couch.

In January the book was forgotten on the floor.

In February it was put on the bookshelf.

In March the book was left there.

In April it happened the same thing.

So did in May.

In June the book was moved to a row on the bookshelf.

In July the girl finally started to read and the book got used and dirty.

In August the book travelled with the woman and it was forgotten at the movie theatre.

In September the book survived in the ''Lost Property'' basket.

In October the book was thrown away.
