Writing means sharing. It's part of the human condition to want to share things - thoughts, ideas opinions.

Two girls of grade five love to read together. They read a book 'Charlotte's Web' by E. B. White. It's a book of friendship and sacrifice. The story narrates how a spider saves a pig's life with bravery and aplomb. They strongly recommended the book as they could sense the feelings of love, happiness, grief and most importantly friendship.

If you type “the answer to life, the universe and everything” into Google’s search box, the number 42 pops up. This is a reference to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, a series by popular science-fiction author Douglas Adams, that has invaded modern popular culture. The novel follows the protagonist Arthur’s journey through outer space with his friend Ford Prefect, revealed to be an alien in search of the titular Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Originally a BBC radio talk show, the adapted novel is famed for its light-hearted, snappy tone, and has plenty of satire and irony to go around. It is, in my opinion, the epitome of the comedy genre. But behind the many witty jokes, the novel contains a profound message, and one that has resounded within me since I first read the book aged 11: no matter how bad our luck is, and no matter how bad things are, we must accept all that happens to us and take it in our stride. I would definitely recommend the novel to lovers of science-fiction, or just great writing in general.
