Leo is telling us about Stargirl. The Hot Seat is a t. v. show that Leo and Kevin are in charge of. Leo is the director and Kevin is the one who asks some questions and the audience asks some questions. When Stargirl came into the show her rat came. The audience asked hard questions and this was the worst Hot Seat ever and they had to shut down.
When it’s a birthday, Stargirl sings Happy Birthday on her ukulele. Dori Dilson and Archie are friends with Stargirl. Archie is a paleontologist who studies bones. Dori Dilson is a girl who writes poems in a loose leaf notebook about herself and whose name nobody new until the day she sat at Stargirl’s table. During a basketball game, Stargirl began with an exaggerated ball bouncing motion. Stargirl loves Leo as a boyfriend. Stargirl and Leo went to the U.S Department of Interior in Sonoran, a desert not like the regular sand in a beach to meditate. Stargirl is different from everybody else because Stargirl doesn’t care what anybody thinks or says about herself like when she sings the Happy Birthday song in the cafeteria and people think it is very weird. -Penelope
