Here's a round-up of recent Show Me surfers' emails. Robert Bone emailed Show Me to ask if there's any Roald Dahl at Buckinghamshire County Museum. Robert says, "... if it is true, that's great. I loved his book about the Monkey, Giraffe and that bird with the giant beak being window washers for the queen!"

Robert adds, "Also about your topic with boys and computers, I do think girls read more then boys. I read on most days on the bus to school, which really helps me a lot. My fav book is Monkey by Veronica Bennett, it really got to me and I see the world in a whole new perspective now."

Here's a wonderful poem by Nabil called Space:
Inter dimensional matter transporter Aliens designed to only slaughter Space and time an infinite apart The universe is like a work of art Supernovas always exploding Supercomputers always overloading Light and darkness forming an alliance The universe is a mysterious science Dimension gates always forming On earth there is global warming A voyage of discovery by travelling in space The most exciting thing in the human race Space is everything from a flower to a bee Some people like space and that includes me!
