Episode 7 Oh, what a great day it was! I was looking forward to it, be- cause I had invited all the children in my class to come over, and also Fathme and Jelena. But many of my classmates were not able to come. They had football or basketball training, some of them had music classes, they went shopping or some of the children just told me that it was impossible to attend. Fathme had to stay home because she was sick. I was disappointed and afraid that no one was going to come. That was making me feel like I didn´t want to have my party anymore. I wondered if anyone would show up. Finally Jelena, Sonia, Isabell, Dina, Marco and Val- entin came. Mum and dad had arranged everything from the décor to the food and David and his friend Laura had prepared some exciting activities for us. We got three different messages writ- ten in secret codes and we had to find out the meaning. They had prepared lollipops wrapped with slips of paper. This paper had the hidden message, which we had to work out. They told us that each letter used represented the previous let- ter in the alphabet. (Z comes before A). They demonstrated it to us. They gave us an example: TBZ ZPVS OBNF – Decoded it was: “Say your name.”
