What would you bring to a desert island?

Dialogue

Logan: Emily, did you see the TV show about a man on a desert island?

Emily: Yeah. He survived on the island by himself for a year.

Logan: I realized that TV show. Can you imagine living like that? What would you bring to a desert island?

Emily: Hmm. Good question, Logan. I would bring a magnifying glass.

Logan: A magnifying glass? What would you need to magnify?

Emily: I wouldn’t use it to look at things. I would use it to make a fire with the sunlight. I could cook food and keep warm.

Logan: Oh, I see. I didn’t think of that. That’s really smart.

Emily: Thanks. What would you bring to a desert island?

Logan: That’s easy. I would bring a book!

Emily: A book? Why? You can’t use a book to get food or water.

Logan: With a good book, I could use my imagination. I wouldn’t get bored at all. Also, books don’t need batteries.

Emily: Well, you’re right about that.
