Stargirl
Stargirl is a teenager in high
school. She is in the last year of high school and is in love with Leo,
and is avoided by everyone expect Leo and Dori Dilson.
Stargirl requests
the "Bunny Hop" at the school dance.I think this is because she knew she
would be moving away and that was her way of saying " good by" to everyone.
This would be a good discription of what she wore to the school dance, a
beautiful yellow dress with shoes and a crosage(braclett with a flower on
it).
A normal outfit for Stargirl would be a floor
length rainbow skirt, a shirt, tennis shoes, and a sunflower canvas bag.
Stargirl thought being herself included only thinking of others, showing up uninvited
to funerals and giving sympathy, and giving back scratches if you talk to
her. This is the typical attitude of Stargirl. She cheers for both teams at
basketball games. Once at a game a player from the other team got hurt and
she ran down to his aid. This is an example of why she was avoided.
Stargirl's real name is Susan. In the book stargirl says
" I pick a name and when I get tired of the name I change it." Leo tells
Stargirl that she needs to be normal like everyone else in Mica High School.
So the next day Stargirl is wearing make-up,a white shirt,jeans, and high
heels. Insted of shoping for floor length skirts and shirts, she looks
for labeled clothing. She called herself her real name Susan.
Susan enters in the speech contest and wins. She
thinks that when she gets back to the school there will be a crowd of people
there. When the vehical gets to Mica the only people there are her parents
and Dori Dilson who made a sign and was sitting behind the sign, crying
because stargirl was not Stargirl. Susan also thinks that the crowd
would break the trophy.
When Stargirl first arrives at Mica High School everybody
stares at her and say,Who is she? In their heads. They also stare at her when
she first sits down at her desk and sets a table cloth
and flowers on her desk.
