My speech
Why Books Are Better Than Movies.
Hi, my name is Hani. don't walk away to watch a movie wondering why That's why I'm here. you must know People all over the world understand that books are way better than movies.
Well Like if you watch a movie you have sort of spoiled the book of course, well back to my speech these are my reasons why books are way better than movies.
To begin with, You can damage your eyesight from looking at a small screen or by looking at a screen for ages, Your eyes can get really tired and sore. people who stare at a screen tend to not blink and that can cause the eyes to dry and feel really uncomfortable.
Another reason is because when you get stuck on a word you can learn from it like if it is a history book you can learn from where you are from your great grandparents and even from world war 1 or 2
My next reason is you can have a fun kid mind and use your own imagination for kids and family for example a fairytale book
My fifth reason is you don't have to rent or buy it, you can just borrow it or use a friend's one, if they let you make sure you don't steal it like
(two screens) its $12.99
(four screens) its $15.99
My fourth reason is, that you can find your book at the local library but on an ipad it's heaps of money like on netflix,disney plus and some kids like watching movies and it's expensive for adults
In fact without a book you have no knowledge and when you do have a book you could read about 20 books in a month. People that are speedy readers can like read about 55 books in a week
My next reason is the news. I'd rather read the newspaper than watch a silly tv.
The worst part about movies is that if the movie is in another language you have to read subtitles and that's annoying.
There you go! I have given you many reasons why books are better than movies, I bet you didn’t know that most movies come from books - that’s how movie makers get their ideas.
I hope you like my speech. Remember don't watch a movie.

Faye's Water
Once upon a time there was a girl named Faye. She was 3 and she had 3 brothers that were annoying.
They were left alone in the lounge. The boys were playing a board game but faye asked to play but they said no.
So faye walked away and was in the bathroom playing with her dolls and all she heard was ‘faye!’ her brothers were yelling out to her to get them a drink of water and she said ‘ok’.
And she thought since they did not let her play she would give them pay back so she went over to the toilet and grabbed a big cup full of water after all her brothers had a drink they were wondering what she was doing so they stood up and spied on her to know what she was doing. They saw she was getting it out of the toilet so The boys went to their mum and told on her because they did not want to drink toilet water ever in their life so their mum said ‘faye come here now!!’
faye ran into the kitchen because that's where their mum was. She said ‘coming’
After faye and her mum talked faye ran back into the lounge to say sorry to the boys.
They said sorry for not letting her play and she said sorry for giving them toilet water and the boys let her join in and she gave them proper water with ice and flavour.
