Explanation:

In the book named “Stargirl”, there is a scene in the lunchroom where the character called “Stargirl” embarrasses another character called “Leo”. How did it happen? Stargirl embarrassed Leo by standing in front of everybody in the lunchroom and singing “Happy Birthday” to Leo even though it was not actually Leo’s birthday.
