【Reader's Response】

To be honest, we missed some important messages that the chapters reveal in our presentation. After Emily's explanation, I knew a lot of details that I never thought of or thought about, especially a word with more than one meaning. For example, in chapter 7, "time" can refer to as just time, a person named "Time", or tempo. In chapter 9, why a "Tortoise" is a teacher because he "taught us". And the "lesson" is "lessen". I enjoy the part whenever Emily solves our confusions after she asked us some questions that we could hardly figure out the possible meanings or the questions that we never thought about.
