Watch out! 113
They were five friends: Maya, Renée, Darcy, Brianna and Candace.
Candace was their leader. She was very popular and she decided
who was going to be a friend and who was not. One night Darcy
had a sleep-over party. Maya was not invited. Candace had decided
she was no longer one of the group. Maya did not know about this
until she got a phone call in the evening.
The girlsA voice said something I could not understand,and I heard laughing in the background.
I said, “What?”The voice said something else unclear. I
suddenly knew who it was. Then Darcy’s voicesaid, “I just wondered if your mother knew thathere in America we have white fillings in teeth, notgold. And we all wonder if you know whatmouthwash is. It comes in bottles, usually it’s green…”
I dropped the phone. Momma was looking at me. “It was nothing,”I mumbled. “Just some kids.”
The phone rang again. None of us moved. Then it rang a second time.My sister, Lena, grabbed it and said, “Hello?” Then she said, “Okay,I’ll tell her. Bye.”
Lena turned to me and said, “Someone said to tell you it’s not niceto hang up on people.”
“Who was that?” my mom asked.I wanted to say, “No one.” Or, “Don’t worry about it, Momma.”
Or, “It was a wrong number.” But nothing came out of my mouth.“This was someone you know?” Momma asked.I couldn’t answer. My mom grabbed the phone and dialed the
number of the latest call. I put my head down on the table. I wonderedif I had stinky breath for real.
“This is Mrs Koptiev,” Momma said. “Who is this? … Who? …
B
Well, a call came from you, a mean call.” Then there was silencewhile she listened.
I looked up to watch her. She was angry. “Well, you tell yoursister and those girls that next time, I call the police!”
Mom reached for my hand. “These are horrible girls to hurtyou.” She shook her head. “My Maya they chose for theircruelty?”
I could not stop my tears then. I ran to my room.
Momma followed me. “They hate me,” I told her.“Hate,” she spat. “Hate from such people means nothing.”“I don’t even know what I DID!” I cried.“Did? You did nothing. This isn’t about did. This is about
bad girls being stupid.”“How am I ever going to go back to school?” I cried. I felt
like I was going to throw up.“How? You just go. Don’t look at those girls. You are better
without them. This isn’t friends, this is dirt. This is less than dirt.”Amy Goldman Koss
(adapted)
Each new chapter in this book is told by one of the girls. In
this way we get to know how each of them feels. Here are
some examples:
Maya:“Candace was popular and she had picked me. That made mepopular too. Renée, Darcy and Brianna became my friends thatway. And now? Now that Candace had decided I was no longera friend, would any of them think about me?”
Renée:“It didn’t feel right. When Darcy called to invite me and told meshe wasn’t inviting Maya, it gave me a stomach-ache.”
Chapter 7114
Darcy:“I had to prove that I was loyal to Candace. I had to show herand the others whose side I was on.”
Brianna:“We always, always laughed at Candace’s games. I thought theywere tests, like walking on hot coals or something.”
Watch out! 115
Candace:“They always tried to show me how well they understood me.They were trying to prove that they felt just as I did. My momwould say that I was lucky to be so important to my friends.”

On 20 April 1999 two teenage boys became
murderers. Twelve pupils, one teacher and the
two boys themselves died that day. Columbine
High School will never be the same.
A sad day at Columbine High SchoolThe morning of 20 April 1999 was a normal morning in Littleton,Colorado, USA. People had breakfast and talked about this and that.It was spring and life was good. But soon this place would be in thenews all over the world. This would become a dark day.
Most people would say that Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris were likeany other teenagers. They had met when they started at ColumbineHigh School and they became friends. They both liked to playcomputer games. They visited each other and talked about girls. From the outside everything seemed normal. Nobody knew what wascoming.
Dylan and Eric were angry teenagers. They were full of hate. In 1998they started planning a massacre at their school. On the Internet theyfound recipes for bombs and other explosives. They collected knivesand guns. They chose the date: 20 April 1999, Adolf Hitler’s birthday.
They entered the school area with backpacks and bags filled withbombs. They had knives and guns under their coats. Now life turnedinto a nightmare at Columbine High School. Dylan and Eric wentfrom room to room. They threatened people, hurt people, killedpeople and threw bombs. They even shot at the police. The place wasa chaos of blood, tears and confusion. About an hour after theyentered the school, Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris ended the massacre.They killed themselves.

Ellen is 14 years old. This summer she is working for Lilith,
an old lady who needs somebody to take her around and
help her with different things. One day they are in a shop.
Ellen sees a beautiful pearl ring there and really wants to
have it. So she takes it.
The pearl ringIt was only afterwards I realized what I had done. By then it was toolate to put it back.
I went up to Lilith. The ring was in my pocket.

Lilith looked down at me.“Shall we go now?” Her voice was low.“I don’t care.”Lilith opened the door. I followed her into the hot street.“That Mrs Parsons is a fine woman. Runs that big store all by her-
self since her husband died. A fine, fine woman.”I felt the pearl ring in my pocket. It felt hot. I swallowed.“Where are we going now?” I tried to sound happy.
Chapter 7122
“I thought we would go over there to that bench and rest a bit beforewe start home. Would you like that?”
I could think of nothing I would like less, but I nodded. I did notwant to rest. I wanted to run. I kept seeing the big sign across thestreet: Parsons’ General Store.
Lilith sat beside me and looked across the street.I smiled, but Lilith did not smile back.What was she waiting for? Surely we had been here long enough to
be rested by now. The silence grew longer. I tried to think of some-thing to say, but for the first time all summer I was speechless.
Then came Lilith’s voice, “You wanted it very much, didn’t you?”“Wanted? What?” I needed time to think.“Don’t make me say it for you.”I felt the ring in my pocket.“Maybe,” Lilith said, “we should just start at the end instead of at
the beginning. Shall we?”I moved my lips to form words, but no sound came.“We can walk back across the street and tell Mrs Parsons.”“What … what will we say?” My voice shook.“We will say we want to return something we have not paid for.”“Will you say it for us?”“No. You will say it. It will not be too difficult. It will be hard, but
not too difficult. Shall we go now?”
“You are back, Mrs Adams? Did you forget something?”“Yes. We forgot something. We forgot something very important.”“Well, then,” Mrs Parsons said. “What can I do to help you?”“Ellen wishes to tell you something.” Lilith squeezed my hand.I stared down and took a big breath. I didn’t know what I was
going to say until I heard my own voice: “We … I mean … I … took apearl ring … I want to give it back. I will not do it again.”
“You may go now, Ellen,” Lilith spoke softly and very slowly, “andput it back where you found it.”
I picked up the ring without looking at Mrs Parsons. I walkeddown the long, long walk to the jewelry counter and put the ring backin its place.
“Now, Mrs Parsons,” Lilith’s voice was normal again. “I wonder if
Watch out! 123
you have the time to show us what you have in rings. Do you haveanything in birthstones?”
“Yes, we do, Mrs Adams. We have them for every month of theyear. What month did you want?”
“June,” Lilith answered.“June?” Mrs Parsons looked puzzled. “That would be …” She
checked with a chart. “That is what I thought. Pearl.”Mrs Parsons took the same pearl ring from the same place and
showed it to Lilith.
I could not watch. I looked at the floor and counted the red spots inthe linoleum.
“We will take it,” Lilith said. She opened her purse and took outtwo one-dollar bills.
“Ellen, you pay Mrs Parsons for the ring. It costs one dollar andseventy-nine cents plus tax.”
Outside on the street, as I carried the pearl ring in its white box,Lilith said, “The ring is yours, Ellen. It is your birthstone.”
She never mentioned the pearl ring again. And she never askedwhy.Lee Hadley/Annabelle Irwin(adapted)

The land of the long white cloudWhen the Maoris came to New Zealand, theycalled their country Aotearoa. The name means“the land of the long white cloud”. A Maorilegend says that New Zealand was born toRangi, the sky father, and Papa, the earth mother.Tane, the son of Rangi and Papa, pushed hisparents apart. He decorated Rangi with the sun,moon and stars and Papa with plant and animallife. Rangi was so sad that he was parted fromhis wife that he started to cry. The tears from his
eyes created oceans and lakes.
Today, about ten per cent of thepeople are Maori. Most of them livein cities. The Maoris were very goodat wood carving and bone carving.Tattooing was also a part of theirculture.

How would you like to move to a country where you don’t
understand the language? It must be difficult, don’t you
think? Jeffrey Thompson (15) from New South Wales did just
that.
An Aussie in Norway– Jeffrey, why did you come here toTrondheim, Norway to live and go toschool? Norway is a long, long wayfrom Australia!
– Oh yes, it is! Well, my fathercame over here to work and the rest ofus came with him.
– Did you know anything aboutNorway before you got here?
– Not much. Many things surprisedme, like the weather. When I came, itwas summer in Norway and winter in Australia, so thetemperatures were about the same. But then it started gettingcolder and colder here!
– What differences are there between Australian and Norwegianschools?
– Norwegian school days are shorter, and I don’t wear auniform here.
– How about the teachers?– Australian teachers are stricter. In Australia you get a
detention if you chew gum in class or if you’re late for school.– Do you miss Australia, Jeffrey?– Yes, I do. I miss my dog and cat. I also miss the weather.
– You have some rare animals in Australia, don’t you?– Yes, we have the platypus, the kangaroo and the koala. The
platypus is my favourite.

– Don’t you have sharks, too?– Yes, we have. We also have a lot of poisonous snakes and
dangerous spiders.– That sounds scary! What else can you tell us about
Australia?– Oh, the weather is fantastic! Even in winter, it’s the best! We
have Christmas in summer, but Santa Claus in shorts is normalto me!
– What do you do in your spare time?– Well, I play baseball, and I work a lot on the computer!
Here in Norway I like skiing. I tried snowboarding, but I was nogood at it.
– What will you miss the most when you go home?– My Norwegian friends, I think. But we can always write
e-mails!

Nicholas Young is an eleven year old English
boy. He runs away from home and pays three
seamen to take him on their ship, the
Endeavor. The captain is James Cook, a
famous explorer. They are going on a mission
to explore the South Pacific.
After a while Nicholas becomes a member of
the crew. The Endeavor has now left New
Zealand and is on her way to Australia. In those
days they called Australia New Holland. The
year is 1770, and Nicholas has been on the ship
for two years. He is now thirteen years old.
Here are some entries from his diary:

bodies. Tupia gave them a gift of fish, but they did not want raw fish,they wanted Tarheto to cook it for them.
These natives are a small and slender people. They are dark incolour. Some have curl to their hair, some have straight hair, soft likeEuropean hair. They follow everything with their eyes.
They have only a few ornaments they wear upon their arms, andthe bones they wear in their noses are fishbones, not human. Weasked, using gestures, about the leaping beasts. The natives calledthese Kanguru.
SATURDAY 14th [New Holland]Lieutenant Gore, out in the country, shot one of the marvellousKangurus that go on two legs. It’s a little one. The fur is short and thecolour of mouse. And never in my entire life have I seen or imagined acreature anything like it.
SUNDAY 15th [New Holland]Tarheto and I went about the land hunting turtles. I am afraid of thealligators, but Tarheto laughs at me. We had the Kanguru LieutenantGore shot, for our dinner today. I liked it even better than roast pork.
August 1770
TUESDAY 21st [New Holland]We have seen the entire coast of this land, which Captain Cook hasclaimed in the name of England. No European has ever seen or daredwhat we have. The Western coast may belong to the Dutch. But theEast coast is ours, and we have most certainly earned it.Karen Hesse

Ned Kelly died more than 100 years ago. He was an outlaw
who rode a horse, put on a suit of armour and fought police.
Today, Ned Kelly is an Australian legend.
The Ned Kelly storyNed Kelly was born in 1854. His parents wereIrish. When he was 12 years old, his father died.Ned’s family moved to Greta near Melbourne.This was wild country and life was hard. Thebest land was owned by rich so-called squatters.
Ned’s family was very poor. Many poor people inAustralia stole horses and cows from the squattersto stay alive. At 16, Ned was sent to prison for threeyears for horse-stealing.
In April 1878, a police officer said that Ned’s motherhad attacked him. He also said that Ned had shot at him. Mrs Kellywas sent to jail for three years. A 100 pound reward was offered forNed. Ned and his brother Dan ran away.
In October 1878 Ned and two friends got into a fight with the police.Ned shot and killed three police officers.
The reward for Kelly and his gang rose to 8,000 pounds. That isthe same as 2 million dollars today! Many people helped Ned indifferent ways.
Two years later the Kelly gang robbed two banks, but nobody gothurt. Many people started looking on Ned as a kind of hero.
In June 1880 the Kelly gang were surrounded by police. The fouroutlaws put on suits of armour and defended themselves. Ned couldhave escaped, but he tried to save his brother and friends. He waswounded by 28 bullets, and the others were killed.Ned was sentenced to death and hanged in Melbourne jail on 11November 1880. He was 25 years old.
Today, Ned Kelly is just a criminal to some people. Others see himas a brave and daring man, a typical Australian.
