I'm Bob Odenkirk and today I'm going to read Being Frank written by Donna W.

Earnhardt and illustrated by Andrea Castellani.

Frank was always Frank.

Honesty is the best policy, he said.

Frank never lied to his schoolmates.

Your freckles remind me of the Big Dipper, he told Dottie.

Dottie pulled her hood over her face.

Your singing is kind of shrieky, Frank told Carol.

Carol stomped away.

Frank always told the truth to adults.

Your breath smells funny.

He told his teacher, Ms. Zaroma.

She sent Frank to the principal's office.

Your toupee looks like my pet weasel.

He told Principal Wiggins.

Mr. Wiggins called Frank's mom.

You wouldn't get so many wrinkles if you didn't glare at me like that.

Frank told his mom on the way home

and by the way you're speeding

and Frank was always always honest with police officers yes officer

he said she knew how fast she was going I told her Frank was very proud of being Frank

but other than police officers adults weren't as impressed with Frank's

honesty as he thought they should be you'll have wrinkles one day too mom said rubbing on some lotion

some things are better left unsaid said mr wiggins adjusting his

toupee you don't have to say everything you're thinking said miss

aroma popping a mint in her mouth frank's schoolmates weren't impressed

either my freckles do not look like the big dipper dotty said and my mother says Because I shouldn't listen to you.

I'm still going to sing in the talent show at the school carnival tomorrow.

But I'm not going to ride the Ferris wheel with you, Carol told Frank.

But we always ride the Ferris wheel together, Frank whispered.

Everyone was upset.

And now Frank wasn't so happy either.

Frank clipped his toenails and alphabetized his bug collection.

but he didn't feel any better

so he walked down the block to grandpa's house grandpa earnest

was on the porch clipping his toenails incoming he yelled frank

ducked what's up frank grandpa said everyone is mad at me

for being frank i'm not sure honesty is the best policy anymore

that used to happen to me too said grandpa mrs. peacock walked by

and straightened her massive hat it's new do you like it

earnest frank thought the hat looked like a flower store on

mrs. peacock's head well grandpa said there are an awful lot of flowers up there

but my favorite is the purple one in the middle.

Thank you, Mrs. Peacock beamed.

Toodaloo.

Frank couldn't believe his ears.

Grandpa, you lied.

No, Frank, I told the truth.

I really do like the purple flower best.

I talked about the good things on her hat instead of the not so good things.

Grandpa's best friend, Mr. Pickles, pulled up in his truck.

Try this relish, he called, handing Grandpa a jar and a spoon.

I've got a cold and can't taste a thing.

Grandpa scooped a spoonful of relish into his mouth.

His nose twitched, his eyes watered, his hair stood on end.

Give it to me straight, Ernest, said Mr. Pickles.

I can't sell it if it's no good.

Grandpa wiped his eyes.

More sugar, less pepper.

Mr. Pickles grinned and shook Grandpa's hand.

Back to the drawing board.

Thanks for your help.

Grandpa, he didn't get mad at you.

That's right.

Grandpa drank some water.

He asked me for the truth, and I gave it to him.

Frank sighed.

So, I shouldn't give the truth unless someone asks for it?

You should always give people the truth, Grandpa said.

You just have to find the right way to serve it the next afternoon at the school carnival

when mrs. Aroma laughed like a horse

Frank said you tell great jokes

when mr wiggins did a weird dance frank said impressive spins sir

when frank saw dotty he said i like dots better than squares

and when carol sang frank said you sure can hit those high notes carol smiled at frank dotty

and i are going to ride the ferris wheel want to come On the way home, Frank gave his mom a poem he wrote for her.

Mom, your hair looks nice today.

I only see a little gray.

And when she smiled, Frank decided not to mention the wrinkles around the corners of her mouth.

The next day, while Frank helped Grandpa in his garden, Mrs. Peacock stopped by again.

You were right, she said to Grandpa.

That other hat had too many flowers.

Just then, Mr. Pickles arrived with a new jar of relish for Grandpa to try.

Excuse me a moment, Grandpa said to Mrs. Peacock.

So what do you think of my hat?

Mrs. Peacock asked, but this time she wasn't asking Grandpa.

She was asking Frank.

Frank looked at Grandpa on the porch with Mr. Pickles.

Grandpa was taking another spoonful of relish, and he wasn't drinking any water.

Frank knew just what to say.

I've never seen a hat like that before.

It must be one of a kind.

Thank you, Mrs. Peacock beamed.

Toodaloo.

So how is it being frank today, Grandpa asked.

Well, Grandpa, I still think honesty is the best policy, said Frank.

But now I know it's best served with more sugar and less pepper.

the end i uh i was given this book to read

100

and i read it and i loved it i love the message in it

101

102

103

or you could hurt people's feelings so you have to decide how and the way you're going to be honest.

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
