Hi, Sophia. News-O-Matic has several articles all about Christopher Columbus. There is a lot for you to research and learn! Try typing his name into the Search.

I'll take a look, Suriel! Thanks for your suggestion. One big hockey story we look forward to is the winner of the Stanley Cup! The Stanley Cup Finals will happen in June. And we are watching to see when Alex Ovechkin breaks the all-time goals record! 🏒

Hello, Hayfel! I love the News Room too! I really enjoying hearing about what readers are thinking and what they're interested in. Thanks for writing! 😁

Hi, Micah. I agree with you. The Holocaust was very scary. I'm thankful that there were brave survivors to share their experiences. It is up to all of us to help make sure it will never happen again.

Hi, Katherine! TikTok WAS disabled for folks in the United States on January 18. However, the app returned the next day. Leaders are still trying to figure out TikTok's future. But for now, TikTok is up and running in the United States.

I love learning history too, Sydney. News-O-Matic has dozens of articles about ancient Egypt. Try our search to see what you can find. And I promise we will write more stories too!

What a fun biography, Charlie! Alexander Hamilton is SO interesting. YES, News-O-Matic has several articles about him. Write "Hamilton" in our search to see what comes up. One article is called "Hamilton's Coast Guard." Another is "Alexander Hamilton’s Final Fight." I hope you enjoy those stories and learn a lot from them.

Good questions, Olivia. Anne Frank's original diary is at the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. That is where she lived for most of her life. Her family had to hide because they were Jewish. In the early 1940s, a group of people called Nazis wanted to kill all Jewish people. So Anne Frank tried to stay safe.

Yes, Chidera! Ichiro Suzuki became the first player elected into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. He'll be inducted in July. Check out the map in our article about this. It shows where all the Hall of Fame players came from! ⚾️

Thank you, Penelope! I think it is so important that young people can learn about the world. After all, it is your world too! Let me know if there is some subject you'd most like to read about. Take care!

Ichiro Suzuki spent the most seasons on the Seattle Mariners. But I really enjoyed watching him on the New York Yankees! ⚾️ I appreciate your note. Thank you for reading my stories every day!

Hi, Emerson! We've got tons of articles about ancient history from Egypt or Pompeii, but I'm always excited to write more. Is there a specific area or time period you are curious about? Thanks for continuing to read News-O-Matic and write in the News Room! I hope you have a good day too.

Hey, Evie! Those are awesome questions! While kids can't become government leaders in the United States, you DO get a say in what happens. Your town or state has officials called representatives. They must make decisions based on what will be best for people like you! Part of how they make those choices is by listening. A teacher or parent can help you find your representatives. Write them a letter to share your thoughts! Thanks for reading News-O-Matic and sending your note.

I'm glad you like that article, Max! Ryan wrote it, so I'll tell him that you enjoyed it! And yes, I promise we have more football articles coming.

You are so kind to check in on me, Laila! I am doing just fine, thanks. And I appreciate that you say everyone loves our articles!

Greetings, Mj! (Yes, some people do say that.) News-O-Matic has written three articles about the L.A. fires so far. It is such a tragic event. We will keep you posted with more updates. You don't have to go to Neptune!

Good question! The size of the Earth depends on how you measure it. The diameter is the distance across the planet from one side to the other (through the center). Earth's diameter is 7,926 miles (12,756 km). 🌍

Sup, Suriel! I got your note and shared it with everyone on News-O-Matic. That's why our next edition will have a baseball story. It's about Ichiro Suzuki, and I hope you like the article because I was the author! (That's what I was doing on this fine day.) Thanks for telling me what you want to read about. It's important to us.

Nice to meet you, Morgan! I'm doing very well, thanks for asking. Your comment made me so happy! 😃

That's the plan! The Lunar New Year in 2025 falls on January 29. It's the Year of the Snake! 🐍
