Tom’s father is a bus driver and he wakes up very early in the morning. He starts work at 4 a.m. He drives a new modern bus. He likes to listen to music while he drives.
He comes back home at 2 p.m. He has lunch and then he reads the newspaper.
He always helps Tom with his homework. He likes Art and he helps Tom learn how to paint.
On Sundays they go fishing. Tom always catches big fish. His father likes cooking the fish
