Book: Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli
We finished the book read 186/186
My Job this week was....to summarize what we read
The key points were...
1. Stargirl becomes normal:
Leo (her boyfriend) told her that people don't like her because she is different. "She is the friendliest person in the whole school but she doesn't have friends." Leo didn't specifically tel her to change but she did. The next day she came to school and she wasn't Stargirl anymore she was Susan Caraway. She changed she didn't have a rat , no ukulele, no flower backpack and no more happy birthday songs. Leo was very happy that she changed.
2,3,4 She competed in a speech competition:
Days later she had a competition that she knew she would win. She wrote a really great speech the day before and rehearsed it in front of Leo. When she got in the bus she told Leo to hold the trophy when they got back to the school because she thought that the whole school will be waiting for her. Well she was wrong but she did win. When she got back there was nobody waiting for her. The next day she came back to school as Stargirl.
5. There is a prom incident and Stargirl leaves Mica High:
Stargirl came to Prom really pretty. She made everyone dance. Everyone was having a really good time except for her because Leo was not there. It was because her and Leo had grown apart. After prom nobody saw her again. She left with no warning. Leo was very sad but soon he learned to appreciate that he had a girl like her.
