Read together
Once upon a time, there was a mechanical engineer named Max who was fascinated by speed. He dreamt of designing the fastest machine ever built. One day, he saw a peregrine falcon diving at the speed of sound and got an idea. He decided to design a machine that could fly like the falcon.
After several months of hard work, Max finally finished his design. He called it the "Litho-Dragster." The Litho-Dragster was a combination of a lithograph and a dragster. It was capable of reaching speeds never seen before.
Max took the Litho-Dragster for its first test flight, and it was a success. The machine flew faster than the speed of sound, and Max was amazed at how well it performed. Children all around the world were fascinated by the Litho-Dragster and wanted to learn more about it.
And that's how Max became known as the designer of the fastest machine in the world.
The end.
