street, I heard the piano music and singing rising above the noise of the people.

coming from. Then I saw a young lady sitting at a piano.

“I’m glad that I could help,” she replied, “Why are you so ?”
“Well, my mom has lost her job, and I’m not sure what to do …”
“Did you noticed the you were walking? Your head was down.” she said. “Don’t be upset, because comes in different ways and if your head is down, you might not see it. You should more… lift your head up.”
I looked her, amazed at how she was encouraging me. “ are you playing the piano here?” I asked her with a smile.

When you get up in the morning, do you find it hard to choose what clothes to wear? If so, you probably need help to make the bigger choices in your life, like what to do when you’re older. Brave New Girls, by American author Jean Gade-berg, will help you make such choices. It says you must be a brave new girl. A brave new girl is one who is confident, healthy and happy. A brave new girl can realize her dreams. To be brave, you need to make a decision for yourself. Other people may tell you what to do, but you should not listen to them. You must only do what you want. If you always wear clothes like your favourite TV star, you must stop doing so. Instead, become your own star and wear the clothes you want. You have to like your body, it says. If you don’t, you will not take good care of it, and it won’t stay healthy. The book also says that girls must start becoming more confident. If you are confident, you’ll succeed in life. A good way to become confident is to realize that you are as clever as boys. In fact you are. Just look at their grades! Only then can you realize your dreams and become who you want to be.
