Tom: Hey, Danny, look here, Harry Potter. I've been looking for it.

Daniel: You wanna get it?

Tom: I don't know if I have enough money. My mom would be angry with me if I spent all the money on it.

Daniel: Then put it back on the bookshelf. I gotta find The World Is Flat.

Tom: Maybe your dad has made a mistake. Probably it's The World Is Round, not The World Is Flat.

Daniel: Hey, that's just what I'm wondering. Even a fool knows the world is round.

Tom: Danny… I think we've found it. The World Is Flat.

Daniel: Let me see. Yes, The World Is Flat, by Thomas L. Friedman. I think that's just the one dad wants.

Tom: Thomas L. Friedman? Never heard of him. He must be a nut to write a book like that.

Daniel: “Best-selling book.” “A brief history of the twenty-first century.” Oh, it's not about geography. It's about history!

Tom: Has it been made into movies? Almost every best-seller has been made into a movie.

Daniel: I don't know. Probably not. This is the first edition, which means that it is newly published.

Tom: Ha, I know why it has such incredible sales volume. I'm gonna write a book The Apple Is Cubic. Probably it will sell well, too.

Daniel: Yeah, and I will buy it for sure. Have you decided on your Harry Potter book? We are going upstairs to get the study materials.

Tom: I think I'd better buy it today.

Daniel: OK, let's do it.
