Kia ora bloggers,
In reading at school we have been given a novel each to read each day. My novel is called Lily and the Rockets by Rebecca Stevens. In the story Lily and the Rockets, Lily is the main character. Lily is a footballer and she is in the Royal Arsenals football team and her team is called the Rockets. All of the players in the Rockets are girls and Lily plays goalkeeper in the story. This story was placed in the year 1917 and all the men had gone to war so, all the women had to take over all of the men’s jobs like being a football player or working in a factory. All of these are examples of Munitions, if you still don’t know what a Munition is here is a better meaning of it. A Munition is when all of the men goes to war they leave their jobs so they can’t go back and finish what they were doing. But some men don’t go to war so they can keep doing what they want to do. But if all the men go to war they leave all the women to do all their jobs. We also did a novel slideshow which is a slideshow about our novel. This is one of our slides in the slideshow. Lily Dodd (main character) plays football. She plays for Woolwich and Royal Arsenals football team.
