Yes I once believed something about someone and then found out later that it wasn't true.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

You can usually tell if something is true about someone else because you can tell, if you really know the person well, who they are talking about.

Yes, I have belived that something was true about a person and until I was put to work with this person, I found out that it wasn't true. I was kinda annoyed with myself!

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

I can tell for example: If someone said that my friend was telling lies to the teacher that she did do her homework but she didn't, I would know that this is a lie, because my friend has never lied to me, or anyone, and that is something that she would NE

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

Yes, I believed something that wasn't true about someone then found out about it.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

You cannot tell if it's true unless you know the person really well.

luke's Comments:

i thought it was good because the princess outsmarted the ministers and got to marry Mahoseth.


bianca, age 11

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

The king believed in the four prime ministers because they had been telling him lies about Mahoseth and saying that he was trying to kill him.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

Yes I did, and I didn't know if it was true or not. Then at the end I found out it wasnt true and I felt sorry for the person because at the time everyone was giving her a hard time.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

Well, I would go to the person and actually ask them. Then you have to make a choice of believing them or not.

bianca's Comments:

i thought it went on and on but overall I thought it was good.


Morgan, age 11

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

The King believed the Ministers because they had been telling him lies and plotting against Mahoseth and told the king that he was trying to kill him.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

No, I don't think I have, but if it did happen I would be furious with the person who told me because they were the ones pretending not the other person.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

One way is to actually talk to the person and ask them questions or try and tell if the person overdoes what they are saying.

Morgan's Comments:

I thought the story was a bit continuous but somehow, I enjoyed it.


Alexander, age 10

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

The king believed the four ministers because they told the king that the princess' husband wanted to kill him.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

I don't think that ever happened in my life.

Because if they were talking about a game, I might of played that game and never seen that thing before.

Alexander's Comments:

The story was interesting because it was fantasy, and I am just crazy about fantasy.


Lucy, age 11

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

The king believed the prime ministers because thay said Mahoseth was planning to kill him. They had told so many other lies that he just believed them. because he was tired of the lies.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

No, but I know sometimes you hear things that aren't true and then when you find out you are really angry at the person who told you and yourself for believing them.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

It is very hard to tell if it is true or not, so I think there is really one way to find out; just ask the person who you think has been told lies about.

Lucy's Comments:

I thought this was a good story. Princess Amaradevi did not give up on Mahoseth, even though she didn't know where he was. She knew that if she tried, eventually he would be allowed to come back.


claire, age 10

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

The king belived the prime ministers because there story was so convincing.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

No, because I always ask people if it's true and then I ask the person who they are talking about.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

To tell if a person is telling the truth you should just ask them or ask people that you trust and know are telling the truth.

claire's Comments:

zac, age 10

zac's Comments:

It was okay, I thought the punishment should be a bit worse.


Jonathan, age 11

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

Because he was scared that the princess husband would kill him and he was scared to lose his life and also to lose his thron.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

Yes I have. I was told something bad about another person and I thought it was true but I later found out that it was all made up and I felt real bad.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

I think you can tell if you now the person well enough but if it is a stranger you never now it could be a lie or it could be the truth.

Jonathan's Comments:

I thought it was really interesting and also quite sad about what the prime ministers did to the princess's husband and how their plan was to steal all the princess's riches.


Jack, age 11

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

The King Belived the Ministers because he loved his daughter very much and he did not want to lose her.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

Yes, I believed someone but in the end I found out that it wasn't my friend, it was the person that told me.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

I think that if a stranger came up to you in a car and said, Your Mum sent me to pick you up," you won't believe them but if it is a friend you probably would believe them so you can't tell.

Jack's Comments:

I thought that the story was interesting and sad because of what Ministers did because all they wanted was the money from the pricess.


Luke, age 11

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

Because he was persuaded that Mahoseth was plotting to kill him.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

Yes. I can't really remember the situation but I remember when it happened.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

You can tell if it is true or not because if you know the person well than they would tell the truth but if it is a person you don't know they would lie.

Luke's Comments:



sana, age 8years

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

Because the four ministers were so clever, they made a plot cleverly against The princess's husband that he was trying to kill him and get his throne. That statement made a deep effect on the king.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

Sometimes I do so.

chelsea, age 11

At the beginning of the story, why did the king believe the four prime ministers?

He belived them because he loved his daughter and she didn't marry one of the rich men, she married a young man by the name of Mahoseth and I think he also belived them because they were prime minsters.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

Yes and it's horrible because you tell other people then lots of people know but then you find out that it's not true and you feel sad but humiliated and you feel bad for the person that the rumour is about.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

Well, that's hard because if a stranger comes up to you and says that your next door neighbors are moving out, you're not really going to believe them but if your closest friend told you something you're going to believe it but that stranger could be tell

chelsea's Comments:

i find that this story tells us that we should not just listen to people's comments although it may be very convincing instead we should check it out clearly by ourselves but no matter what,we should not let the person feel suspicious about anything.

Because they always advised him well. I dont know what he was thinking. Now I always know to not trust everyone.

Did you ever believe something bad about someone else and then find out later that it wasn't true?

Yes, that always happens to me. I really like it because I get so convinced that it really happened, so then I am mad at the person for no reason. And I hate being mad at people.

How can you tell if something that you hear about someone else is true or not?

I now really believe that you should speak with the person themselves, because that is the only way that you can find out it is true or not and solve your problems.

Jefferson's Comments:

I am now, everyday, starting to read many of these stories. I really like this story especially, because this is the only one that I wrote to Whootie Owl. I love you Wootie Owl, and I love your stories too!
