The Truth Machine

“‘I love truth,’ said Professor Verity, ‘and I hate lies. I love good people and I hate bad people. I love peace and I hate war.”


Professor Verity could to make a truth machine. And he became famous through newspapers magazines and television. He decided to call three people who have some trouble and need to solve it by using the machine. Their names are Mrs Sheeker Inspector Sack and Dr Simple. All of them could solve their problem, but it led bad things. For example Mrs Sheeker lost her husband, Inspector Sack lost his job and Dr Simple became can’t comprehend what is true. So they got angry and they made Professor Verity accept the true machine. As a result they found he made it for his success money and power.


After reading this book I felt human is indulgence and greedy. I don’t want to be the adult like that.

GOODBYE MR HOLLYWOOD

 Book Review:      Today I read GOODBYE MR HOLLYWOOD . Firstly I had thought this book is mystery. However it's not mystery story like Holmes but it contained accidents or questions.        There was a man who is Nick. He is a travel writer and have come Whistler, in Canada for his working. At a cafe in the village he met a pretty lady. He is called Mr. Hollywood from her because Nick likes movies.

'Who, Sir? Me, Sir?'

 Book Review:      Today I finished reading a book of 'Who, Sir? Me, Sir?' This was little long and high level for me, so there are some points that I couldn't understand. However the story was interesting.     There was a teacher who wants his class to have ambition, and to do great things in life. Therefore he enters them for a sporting competition against the rich students of Greycoats School. The team that he has chosen for the competition think the teacher has gone crazy. 'Who, Sir? Me, Sir?' says little boy who is called Hoomey, his eyes round with horror. 'We'll never beat Greycoats,'  the others cry. 'Never in a million years!'      However you don't know what you can do until you try...      If you know the result of the competition, I recommend to read this book. As for me the result made me surprising because I couldn't guess the troubles. About this book OBW3 YL  3.2 Pages  57 Words count  10296 Thank you
