BR1-14: Singer Wanted

The school band Hot Rock is looking for a new singer. Daniela and Gemma bath want to sing with the band. Who will be the new singer?

I read Singer wanted. It was published by Foundations reading library and it was written by Rob Waring and Maurice Jamall. It is a story about the rock band “Hot Rock”. Hot Rock is Faye’s band. The members are Faye, John, Tyler and David. One day, Hoy Rock wants a new singer. They recruit one. Jenny and Daniela watch announcement about it on the board, and Daniela wants to be a new Hot Rock’s singer! Then, their friend, Gemma comes to them, and she says “I want to sing for Hot Rock.”

It’s Saturday, Hot Rock is looking for their new singer. Daniela is going to sing with band member, but she is nervous, so she can’t sing well. Next, Gemma sings for the band, too. She sings very well! Everyone likes her singing. Daniela knows Gemma is very good. The band talks about Daniela and Gemma. David, John and Tyler want Gemma, but Faye wants Daniela, because she likes her singing. They talk for a long time. Faye says, “We want Gemma to be the new singer!” Gemma says, “Thank you, everyone.” Daniela is very sad, but she says to Gemma, “Congratulations.”

The next day, Gemma meets the band again. The band is happy with their new singer. They are very excited! Gemma gives clothes to the band. They don’t want it. Gemma says the band’s name is going to change, and she wants sing POP songs. But they don’t want to change it and don’t play POP music. Gemma is very selfish!

After all, the band wants Daniela to be in their band, they want her to sing with them. Daniela is happy, and she says “Thank you.”

I won’t be a girl like a Gemma! I want to be a docile girl! www
