» Badlands

A meteorite has collided with Earth. Krystal and a small group of other survivors are living in a subway station. Their food supply is running low, and tempers are frayed. When Krystal is caught giving away some food, her life goes from bad to worse.

Some children are living in an underground train station after a meteor struck Earth. Imagine you live with Krystal and the other children. Write a diary entry that describes the events of a day, such as how you get food and water and how you stay warm and dry. Read the diary entry to someone in your family.
