Playing To Win Book Review

As you know on my blog I have been doing a novel study, my teacher gives me questions and tasks I need to do, this is the last one I need to do, this is a book review for "Playing To Win"

Review -  this book is recommended to anybody who likes rugby and action books, there is a drag race, a car crash, and Todd cut Denny's brakes so he chased him down. There are a lot of great parts to this book and plus it is super interesting.

Denny / Alice Conflict

Denny and Alice have been having conflict/ Conflict means that there may be differences as in like He might say that rugby is cool and she says different, that could be the cause of conflict

Her brother died in a car crash and he was drunk, at the time he was at a rugby celebration that is why she doesn't like rugby.
There also may be more but that hasn't been told on the book.

Responsibilities

 Denny has responsibilities in his life; he helps his mum with finances, he takes care of his sisters and is a part of a team.

What responsibilities do you have in your life? how do you manage them and making sure you are completing what you are trusted to do.

Making my bed, making sure that i'm ready in the morning for a school day, sometimes putting my dog in his kennel, not being late to school, Putting My P.E Uniform into my bag, At school making sure that i'm getting changed for PE, Hurumanu and Sport, making sure i'm not late to my classes, when we line up i need to make sure I have my Chromebook out and I am in line, making sure in on the right sites that in meant to be on.

Treasure Maybe? Possibly

In this story I got stuck in s room, there is fire all around me, I try to smash the door down, I failed so just stopped, it's hard to breathe, I found an axe so I destroyed the door, I got out and found out that in on an abandoned and deserted island, I was looking around for people but I found nobody so I was walking around, I walked around the whole island, as soon as I saw a sign, it said, take this shovel and find the treasure, “is this a joke,” I said.

The sign changes and said Maybe, what does this mean. I found a x in the ground. I think the shovel is meant to dig that up. Heard a bang, I think hit something metal, if that was the case it may be god bard, that was not the case, it was an old pot, did it have money in it? No clue… To Be Continued

Fish Out Of Water, Playing To Win

One time I felt like a fish out of water when I moved from Australia to New Zealand. I was nervous hopping on the plane because I had only ever been on a plane once, this was when I was around 7 or 8 years old. When I started my school I was at South Hornby, it was frightening because it was a new school, I was only a year 3 then so I didn't know much about the school, the school went from year 1 to year 6.  It was when I was year 4 that I got used to the school, but in year three I hated school, new school, new rules to the school, Australia was nice and hot, New Zealand was cold and rainy. I hated new Zealand, now that I am year 8 I have gotten used to new Zealand's weather, the past week it has been really hot and it reminded me of Australia because it was so hot.

That was a time where I felt like a fish out of water, going to a new country and a new school.

Playing To Win

There is tension between Todd and Denny because of they both like Alice, but she doesn't like Todd. He told Alice a story that made Alice laugh and made Denny jealous.
They also may have some tension because Denny parked in Todd's parking space which made Todd furious at Denny and wanted a race, Denny also won that so Todd was embarrassed. I think Todd has an anger issue because everything that Denny does todd gets angry at him.
