Writing homework can be a daunting task for many students.

The thought of spending hours


researching, writing, and editing can be overwhelming. But what if there was a machine that could
do all of that for you? This is the premise of The Homework Machine by Dan Gutman.

The story follows four unlikely friends: Brenton, Sam, Judy, and Kelsey. They are all in the same
fifth grade class and are assigned a project to create a time capsule. Brenton, being the genius that he
is, comes up with the idea to create a machine that can do homework for them. The other three are
hesitant at first, but eventually agree to use the machine.

The machine, named Belch, is a computer that can access the internet and complete any homework
assignment given to it. The four friends are amazed at how quickly and accurately Belch can
complete their work. They start using it for all of their assignments and soon become known as the
\"D Squad\" in their school.

However, their secret is eventually discovered by their teacher, Mr. Murphy. He is initially skeptical,
but after seeing the machine in action, he becomes a believer. Mr. Murphy agrees to keep their secret
as long as they promise to never use the machine for cheating.

Everything is going well until one day, Belch malfunctions and starts spitting out random answers.
The friends realize that they have become too reliant on the machine and have not been learning
anything. They decide to destroy Belch and start doing their homework on their own.

In the end, the friends learn the value of hard work and the importance of learning. They also learn
the consequences of taking shortcuts and cheating. The story ends with the friends graduating and
going their separate ways, but they will always remember the adventures they had with Belch.
