What is the homwork time machine about?
There are two separate and distinct stories. one is the adult science fiction novel- The Time Machine- by H.G. Wells- l897. the other one is Danny Dunn and the Homework Machine- which was originally ( my guess it was rejected for radio play maybe by the educational establishment) done as a story record album- it should be noted Danny Dunn, a juvenile inventor-scientist was something of a burlesque on the more serious Tom Swift. they had titles like Danny Dunn and the Laser Roller skates- or something to that effect- had steep comedy overtones. The Homework Machine, as I can figure it- was something akin to a modern day- well, Computer.
In the book The Homework Machine what was the main idea?
The author was spoofing science-fiction and I am not familiar with this tale as a book,it was done as a comedy radio-play record album in the sixties under the heading of Danny Dunn and the Homework machine. Danny Dunn was a comedic boy-inventor type and the material was usually written in the comedy vein. I beolieve the author was a man named John Holland, not the submarine inventor. they had one about motorized roller-skates that was, in the words of one reader- a riot of laughs and maybe the inspiration for motor-skateboards which do exist.
Who is time traveler from the homework machine?
WHOA! the time traveller is the anonymous adult scientist who is the lead character in the H.G.Wells novel- The Time Machine. I have no idea why Wells made him anonymous. Danny Dunn and the Homework machine was a juvenile story-type record album sold in boxed sets. The title may have been suggested by the short-lived mainly spoof science-fiction series Danny Dunn. Not all of the gadgets were the inventions of young man Dunn. ( the Heat Ray was not). I can"t see any connection between the Wells novel and a juvenile record-album Radio drama, which being Danny Dunn, was probably comedic. I am surprised there is a revival of interest in the Dunn character and this work, which I only saw as a boxed juvenile record set in the early seventies, it probably came out in the late fifties, needless to say, never made the charts.

Is a homework machine real?
This was not a novel but a sort of science-fictional record album that was known to be floating around the record stores juvenile sections in the sixties and seventies. things like this did not sell. it was evidentally spoken word- like a radio drama. if kids know how to read who need this. The lead character Danny Dunn , was a comedic take-off on the Boy Inventor character Tom Swift and was played for satirical laughs. some of Dunn"s devices were an anti-gravity paint, motor or laser roller skates, etc. they appealed to a comedy audience,not serious science fiction fans. I am only familiar with the (Homework Machine) as a record album= or recorded radio drama. It may have had more than one record as it was in a box, not a sleeve. device looked like a Linotype machine. I believe the work was entitled ( Danny Dunn and the Homework Machine). that"s all I remember I saw it in the record department of Great Eastern on Route 22 in the early seventies-- naturally I was not in the market for such as juvenile product.
How many pages are in the homework machine?
None, it"s a dramatic record album, not a book! Danny Dunn and the Homework Machine was the full title. last seen in a record dept. in a Great Eastern store around l972. nobody ever bought this stuff. from cover illustrations, the machine resembled a Linotype or maybe a very early centralized traffic control machine used to run and monitor, say, subway or RR signal operations. many flashing lights, etc. My guess the story came out in the fifties when computers were remote and somewhat exotic, not everyday appliances like this one being used at the library. It was not, by the way, called a computer.
What person made The Homework Machine?
It was a comedic sort of science-fiction story that starred the character Danny Dunn. Danny Dunn was a kind of bargain basement Tom Swift. ( or to make the comparison truer, the analogy of the super-agile but non-flying Spider Man to the fully Super-Powered Superman might be made. Up to a point Spider-Man was a spoof on Superman,and like him, in his cover job, works for a newspaper. ( the Daily Bugle) Peter Parker was a Photographer, and used a Yashica 35 Camera- a type rarely used by Pressmen of the time ( 60"s) most by then used SLR" the Yashica he carried was a rangefinder model ( not the best choice for press photography). so it goes.
