Hello, everyone!
My project is about Marco Polo and the Silk Road.
Marco Polo was a man from Italy. At the age? of 17, he went to China. He travelled along the Silk Road with his father and uncle. Together, they moved goods between Europe and Asia on the Silk Road.

Polo learned about coal and paper. The Chinese discovered?
coal and invented paper. These things were new to Marco
Polo. He brought some coal and paper back to Italy with him.
He also brought back a lot of silk, tea and other? goods.

I hope to write a book like that someday. Thank you.
