JAHNNA N. MALCOLM

   Madison's is a roll model for her school. Her parents and teacher always expect her to make A's. The heart-2-heart pal program was one of those big ideas that the Evergreen High Counselors had invented to help students survive their high school years.

Student were suppose to communicate with their partners.






 At the same time, her school would nominated the candidates for student president and she has going to be one of them.She's busy running for school election and is up against Jeremy, her sworn enemy since forever. 





   Although she was having trouble concentration with her heart-2-heart pal, but soon Madison's finds herself pulling aside more and more time to email her anonymous pen pal, who calls himself blue. As the election rapidly heats up, so do the messages, until the two are virtually an item, and they've never even met of this assignment is, they not supposed to meet them, they only supposed to write them. One day, blue's ask Madison a date. Madison is to excited and accept it, they break the rules and meet in person.

My Opinion :


This is our first time reading English book, it was quite hard to really understand every new words that we find. We have to refers dictionary so that we can follow the story. We learn new words every chapter and we want to share with you some of it, refer our ''NEW WORDS'' .


This book is about love story and as a teenage, it was enjoyful reading this book. Even we don't understand some words, but this book are using simple English and it help a lots. It was fun to have a pen pal like Madison's, where we can share everything with them as they don't even know us. Its motivate us to be like Madison, where she is a roll model for her school, cleaver girl, having desirable qualities. She wake up every morning to study and she won't sleep before she get the answer for the question. As a Muslim, Rasulullah had teach us to wake up before the sun rise.


Morality of this story is :


i)   we have to work hard to achieve something that we want.
ii) "Don't judge the book with its cover", which mean, we have to be friend with someone we assume as our enemy, because there is no reasons to hate them if they didn't do anything wrong to us.
iii) Always ask people opinion especially our friends and family before doing something
iv) Plan everything before start something, so that it won't waste our time.




Here is one of the pen pal web where you can try to find your pal :)
