I know the song "happy birthday" very well,but don't know about the writer and the story of the song before. Today I read the story in a book,it's interesting. The song was written by an American girl,when she was a child,she was poor.Once she was invited to her friends' birthday party,she was pleased but sad,because she had not enough money to buy presents for them,what can she do? later that night she was in bed,thinking about the presents when the door poened and in came her grandma."what is happening?"her grandma asked,hearing the girl's story,she said,"don't worry,I think I can help you,how about singing a song together?Happy birthday to ..."what a beautiful song!They sang and sang.Suddenly she woke up,it was a dream!She decided to write it down at once and sing it to her friends at the party. When she sang the song at the party the next day,her little friends were very happy."how wonderfully she sings,what a beautiful song!we have never heard such a song before.Thank you for giving us the special present."said one of her friends.And they learn to sing it together again and again. Later the girl became well-known in America. What a moving story! What do you think of the story and the girl?
