Duffy Assembly -

Today Saint Patrick’s School went to the school hall and we had some visitors from the
Duffy books. They were the people that buys  books and give them to us .
There were two gentlemen and one of the men stood up and talked about how books
changed his life.


His story was about how he went to the shopping mall with his mum one day.
Every time he would go there, his mum would see a friend in one of the shops. She
would tell him to wait for 5 seconds while she talked to her friend.  The 5 seconds
actually meant 5 hours.

The next time it happened again and mom would say the same thing to me. Then it
happened again and again and again that he became sick of waiting.


He decided to go to a place that had a lot of shelves with  CD covers. He picked one
of the CD covers and looked at it and he said to him self, this looks cool and then when
he opened it there was nothing so he became upset. He walked up to the front desk and
asked the lady where is the CD . The lady said to him , “ It is a book not a CD. After
that he read the book in the library but then  someone distracted him by talking very
loudly in the library.

Henry got up and was ready to tell the person off but, when he got there he tapped the
person on their back and the person turned around. Henry looked at the person and the
person looked back at him and he saw her beautiful brown long hair and her brown
eyes and big juju lips.  She asked him , “What do you want?” in a posh way,
When it was Henry’s turn to talk he had no words coming out of his mouth so she
told him to Get lost!


After a few days Henry got up because he was sick of crying because he cried for 7
days and 14 hours 10 minutes and 10 seconds. He felt devastated because he liked
the girl and she rejected him.

Some time later when he went back to the library,  he went to look for a book. He was
surprised that the girl was there. He walked up to her and  said to her can you go
somewhere else? (because she was talking to loud) and then she ran off out of the
library. And she cried for 7 days and 14 hours and 11 minute and 11 seconds.


The audience including me,  said to him you are sad and some kids just laughed .
He was very entertaining.
