A great inventor
John Logie Baird (1888–1946) was a Scottish
inventor. In October 1925, he asked a young
man, William Taynton, for his help. William
stood under the lights in Baird’s workshop.

difficult to play than ‘Skateboarder Pro’ but
it’s faster and more exciting. The graphics

Great places of the world

My name’s Gabriella. I’m from the oldest and
most beautiful city in Colombia. It’s called
Santa Marta and it’s by the Caribbean Sea.
Tourists come to Colombia because it has
everything – music, festivals, rainforests,
mountains and beaches. My favourite one,
Playa Blanca, is only fifteen minutes from
my house.

My name’s Theo. I’m from Dion, a small
village in the north of Greece. It’s in a
E

beautiful valley near Mount Olympus.

That’s the highest mountain in Greece. It’s
PL

only 2,917 metres high, but people like

climbing it because in Greek mythology
the gods lived at the top.
M

Tourists don’t usually come to Greece to

visit the mountains; they come because
SA

there are hundreds of islands. My

favourite island is Santorini because it has
a volcano.

I’m William and I’m from Edinburgh.

That’s the capital of Scotland. Edinburgh
isn’t the biggest city in Scotland but it’s
the most important. It’s by the sea and
there’s an interesting castle at the top
of a hill.
Tourists come to Edinburgh for the festival
in August. When they’re here they also
visit the lochs (lakes). My favourite place
is Loch Ness. I always look for Nessie, the
famous Loch Ness monster! William, 12
