YOUTUBERS IN SPAIN by Sergio
Today I am going to talk about youtubers in Spain and in Britain
A youtuber is a professional who makes a living by making videos on Youtube using the platform monetization system for profit .
They are people too who record videos and upload them , some of these Youtube videos are the most visited in the whole world.
People normally upload videos in order to win money and some of them just for having a laugh.
The quality of the videos is usually not very good, since youtubers normally make one or more videos every week, which requires a lot of time .
The most famous youtubers in Spain are: ElRubiusOMG, AuronPlay, Wismichu, Willyrex, Mangelrogel.
My favourite youtuber in Spain is DjMaRiiO .
DjMaRiiO is a spanish youtuber that uploads videos to youtube of football in real life, in videogames, for me he is very funny .
He has a second channel ( DjMaRiiOHD ) which uploads videos of a videogame called GTA V and Clash Royale .

OUR LADY OF PARIS by Elena
Hello, I am Elena. I’m going to talk about the book Our lady of Paris. It is a book written by the writer Victor Hugo. It narrates the famous story of Esmeralda. We do recognise this book because Walt Disney put it as a main character of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. But the real story is not the same as the story of Walt Disney.
In the real story Esmeralda died and the Hunchback of Notre Dame too.Three people liked Esmeralda but only one , the weakest of all really loved her.
I really prefer the film of Walt Disney because the real book is very sad , but it is true that the real story is the original because the story of Disney is just an interpretation of Hugo´s book.
THE BOOK:
In the book Esmeralda is the main character. She helps him, when she is going to die, he saves her because he catches her and carries her to the church of Notre Dame. In the church the soldiers can´t enter and take her. But they finally enter and kill Esmeralda.The story finishes when Quasimodo expires next to the tomb of Esmeralda.
Esmeralda giving Quasimodo water when they were throwing things at him:
