I am thinking about quitting school. Ironic right!  I just moved here from Nebraska, I am Californa at the moment. 

The reason behind this is because I'm different and I know this may sound silly but it is true. I liked drawing but everyone else likes scoccer.

I came home from school and told my mom I wanted to quit school, just as always she sat down in her rusty old rocking chair and patted a spot on the couch. She had been reading a book.

I told her how different I was from every one else. I was even different from her. She told me that there were many people like me. I was almost convinced. But that was not enough.

The next day I saw Gordo sitting by a wall. I came up and asked " why are you not playing soccer?" He replied " can you keep a secert?" " Yea" I said. " "I like to read but I play soccer so the others don't know.

" You're kinda like me," Sarai said. " I wish other kids knew how it feels to be different, said Gordo. "That's a great idea Gordo,"said Sarai

In this school many kids feel different. I don't like it,  I do need some help to accomplish my goal though.

That's a great idea but you may need principal and a few kids that feel the same. 

I need to do some thing about are differences, would you help?

I love that idea. How about you make poster to raise awareness.

Being 

different is 

okay

it is perfect!

Being 

different is 

okay

But by the end of the day some kids ripped it down.

Posters were not the best idea. Can we try a play?

That's a great idea!

I am having a play. So please join.
