My summary on Something Alive
The main girl in this story was born in New Zealand as well as her mum and dad but she has something inside of her that makes her feel lost! Her grandmother is Japanese so that makes her have a little bit of Japanese that's what makes her lost. She says ‘’ I feel like a badly translated haiku’’.she will sometimes get frustrated when people pick on her and ask her questions about where she comes from and stories about Japan but she doesn't really like to listen or answer anything why? Because it's either she has heard these stories and she gets frustrated when listening to them and she doesn't like answering questions because she doesn't know much about Japan; what if she answers it wrong she will most probably feel bad and guilty. Her grandmother would often convenience her to learn and write more japanese. But now New Zealand feels like home for both of them. But either way her and her grandmother love that they are New Zealand and Japanese.
My storyboard on Something Alive

Kia Ora Kylah, this is an excellent piece of mahi. I really enjoyed your storyboard as it clearly shows the main characters, and the two countries she belongs to. When the author says she feels like a badly translated haiku, what do you think this means?
