This is not embarrassing, just a fun encounter...
I found out that my Norwegian textbook from school had a translated chapter from Animorphs in it!
It was chapter 1 from Marco's first book, so not much from the actual plot there.
What was it there for?
For reading. It's a reading book.
It even had some tasks related to it.
EDIT: I've now got the book and translated the tasks.
[spoiler=Open this spoiler for the tasks]
1. What special ability does Marco have in this chapter from
The Discovery?
2. What's the "thanks" Marco gets for helping that old man?
3. What does Marco mean by saying that "I'm not exactly Arnold Schwarzenegger"?
4. How do you understand the term "doing a morph" in the text about Marco?
5. Why does Marco say in the end that everyone should care about their own things?
6. What's so fascinating about stories where the humans are turning into animals, do you think?
Task 7 and 8 are boring language-related tasks.
9. Imagine that you and a few classmates could turn into any animal possible. Write a story where you get lots of fun with that ability. ( Sounds like a fanfic to me.
)
10. In the next chapter of
The Discovery we get to know that a boy named Tobias, who's forever turned into a bird, more closely a red-tailed hawk. He forgot turning back to human within two hours, and that's why he has to live in a bird's body the rest of his life. Write about what happened when Tobias got trapped as a red-tailed hawk.
11. Find out as much as possible about the book series
Animorphs, so you can hold a mini-presentation for your class.
In other words, most of these tasks would be easy-peasy for us RAFians, right?[/spoiler]
