BR 2-13: Battle of the Bands (Millett, 2007)

"Hey, I konw how we can do this!" (Millett, 2007, p.13)

Molly is a member of band Street Smart. This day, they had the Battle of the Bands competition. Jasmine, their drummer, had butterflies in her stmach. Wild Ride is enemy for Street Smart. They are a great rock and band do their thing. But their song was so loud.

Before Street Smart start to band, Jasmine was so nervous. And their turn came. They readied to band. Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the power turned off. The school hall fell silent. Their face dropped. Suddenly, Molly came up on an idea. She asked them to sing 'Forever'. The one Jasmine played at my brother's wedding. This song don't need any power, so they can sing nothing instroments.

And they sung 'Foever'. The audience was listening really hard. When they finished singing, everyone jumped out of their seats and cheered like never before. Street Smart was surprised that. And the name of the winner of the Battle of the Bands competition was Street Smart!

The book tought me that sometimes happening help us. If the happening don't happen, they may not win the competition. Their choice needed courage. Sometimes I dance somewhere, and if there are happening, I couldn't do like them.
