Why does Hannah think
she is so different from the other kids in her class?
| We think Hannah thinks
she is so different to the other kids in the class because she
doesn't have birthdays as good as other kids in her class and is not
as popular. Victoria Point Aussie Readers |

Do you think being
popular is cool? Why? Give reasons for your answer.
1. Being popular is cool because you never get bored. 2. It's good because you have lots of friends. Aussie Readers |
| No. Because people bug
you and they want to play with you when you want to play with
one person for at least one day. St Hildas, WA |
The
Trio said they would go to Hannah's party provided she didn't invite Izzie.
If you were Hannah, what would you do?
| I would invite Izzie and a couple of
other people, but not the trio because Hannah was a better friend to
Izzie than the trio. One of the people she could invite is
Sophie because she was new and might not be invited to so many
parties St Hilda's Rappers |
| We think that if we were Hannah we
would say no to the trio and invite Izzie and our other friends to
our birthday. Aussie Readers |
What do you think Hannah learned from
this?
We think Hannah learnt that if you betrayed your best friend you would lose him or her and then the people who liked you, but who you didn't like, and who didn't like your best friend, would start bothering you because you wouldn't have anyone else to spend your time with. Aussie Readers |
| Her best friend, Izzie, is
more important than three girls she doesn't know. St Hildas Rappers, WA |
