Making of A Champion: Rugby Union Star

Making of A Champion: Rugby Union Star

By Andrew Langley

I love rugby union here are some differentses with rugby and rugby union: The two forms of rugby share the same basic rules of the game and use a similar-shaped ovoid ball. The aim is to score more points through tries, conversions, penalty goals and drop goals than the opposition within the 80 minutes of play. Goals are scored when the ball is kicked between the two posts and over the cross-bar, either during open play or as the result of a penalty. A try is scored when the ball is touched down on or beyond the defending team's goal-line. The try-scoring side is given the chance to score two additional points by kicking a conversion similar to a penalty goal attempt in a whichever point along a line which is perpendicular to the place where the try had been scored. The ball can be taken forward in three ways—by kicking, by a player running with it or as the result of a set-piece. The ball can be passed from hand to hand between teammates in a backward or sideways direction; it may not be passed forwards although it can be kicked forwards. Dropping the ball in a forwards direction results in a scrum, a set-piece that restarts the game, except on the sixth tackle in league where the game restarts with a handover to the opposition. Only the player holding the ball may be tackled. A rugby tackle is an attempt to bring the ball carrier to the ground or to stop his forward progress. Play restarts with the ball being transferred to another player. The playing positions are divided into "backs"—generally faster and more mobile who score most of the points and the larger, stronger "forwards" who are involved in the more physical aspects of rugby and generally do more tackling.

The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind: Picture Book Edition

The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind: Picture Book Edition

By William Kamkwamba, Bryan Mealer

I really, really, enjoyed this book! This book was a true story about a boy named William Kamkwamba. The place where he lived had no electricity. So, William decided to make something that would help power his home by making something. He saw something, and do you know what it is? Yes, it's a windmill! He first made a mini windmill, because he wanted to test it out. He powered his dad's radio to see if it worked. It actually did! So, using old scraps of metal and other junk from the junkyard, he made a bigger, life size windmill. And it worked! He had to fix some things, here and there, and he successfully lit his home without using gas that was bad for them. It's such a great story to read.

The Fall of Five (Lorien Legacies, Book 4)

The Fall of Five (Lorien Legacies, Book 4)

By Pittacus Lore

The Fall of Five is the fourth of the Lorien Legacies, where all of the Garde finally got together and are starting to prepare for the upcoming war that may happen at any moment. They all kept a positive attitude towards the fight regardless of how it might be a burdensome task. While all the events they do together, the Garde found out some facts that they never knew about, such as the real identity of Ella and the real side of Five. Five was actually helping the Mogadorians, which makes him a traitor. He killed one of Garde, which made rest of the Loriens shocked. This makes me relate to reality and a quote I’ve known, which is “Be careful who you trust and tell your problems, not everyone that smiles at you is your friend.” In reality, people may seem to be trustworthy and friendly, but some of them intends to do malicious acts to you. Throughout the novel, Five seemed to be trustworthy as well, yet he was a traitor who betrayed the Garde. My favorite part of this book was when they played capture the flag together, I loved how every single one of them showed their strength and their teamwork while they work together. This is so far one of the most entertaining book in the whole series and I’ll strongly recommend the Fall of Five to readers who likes adventure novels.
