Bostyn's Horribly Awful, Really Bad Day
Join Bostyn on her challenging day at school in Poway, where she faces a series of tough obstacles and learns the true meaning of courage.
Bostyn woke up feeling confident for her big presentation at school. But when she arrived, she realized she had left her project at home. Panic set in as she imagined standing in front of the class empty-handed. Her teacher, Ms. Davis, was strict and wouldn't accept any excuses. Bostyn's heart sank, knowing this presentation counted for a big part of her grade. - I can't believe I forgot it, Bostyn whispered to her friend.
Determined to fix things, Bostyn decided to call her mom for help. But when she reached the office phone, it was already in use. Frustration bubbled up inside her as she waited and watched the minutes tick away. - Please, I really need to make a call, she pleaded with the receptionist. But the line stayed busy, leaving Bostyn helpless and worried.
Bostyn returned to her classroom, hoping she'd somehow find a way. Her friend, Emma, suggested borrowing a project from someone else. - I can't do that, Bostyn sighed. - It's not honest. She felt a wave of despair as Ms. Davis announced it was time to start presentations. How could she face everyone without her project?
As the presentations began, Bostyn felt her courage wane. She wished she could just disappear. - Maybe I should just tell Ms. Davis I can't do it, Bostyn thought. But deep down, she knew she couldn't give up. She had to find a way to face the problem, even if it seemed impossible. Her mind was a whirlwind of doubt and fear.
Just then, Ms. Davis approached with a kind smile. - Bostyn, would you like to present last? It might give you some time to think. Suddenly, a spark of hope lit up inside her. Maybe she could draw her project from memory. - I'll try, Bostyn replied, feeling a surge of determination. She sketched her project on the board, explaining each detail with growing confidence.
When she finished, the class erupted in applause. Bostyn felt a wave of relief and pride wash over her. Ms. Davis gave her a nod of approval, impressed by her creativity and courage. - Well done, Bostyn, she said warmly. Bostyn learned that with courage and honesty, she could overcome even the worst of days.
