This week my job was to be the illustrator. I drew the picture that you can see to the left. I drew two stars one blue and one pink. The blue one is for Starboy known as the main character that tells the story his name is Leo. The pink star represents Stargirl her name is Susan Caraway. The stars are touching hands because Leo and Susan like each other and now everyone knows so they are calling Leo Starboy. There are a bunch of objects and words around her representing what she likes. There is a basketball and a pompom because she is a Cheererleader and right now it is basketball season. Then there is a heart above her to show that there is love in the story. The is also a notebook and a pencil that represent her being good at school. There is also a microphone that represents her singing happy birthday to people in the cafeteria while playing her ukulele. There is a big word next to her that says HOT SEAT. It is a radio show that is made by Leo's friend. They interview the most popular kids in school and they have wanted to interview her since the beginning of the year. They finally did and it changed her life. Now she is a lot less popular and people are being mean to her.
