Harmony Rainbow’s Life One day, in 1943 in New York, a baby called Harmony Rainbow was born. Her father was a barber and her mother was a vet. When she was 2 years old, she cut her cheek with a razor. She had a scar on her cheek. She has liked music since she was 4. When she was 6, she accepted a challenge: she had to draw a stick-man without looking at the drawing. INSTEAD OF THIS: SHE DREW THIS:

She kept the drawing, she said the picture was beautiful. When she was 9, she started to design her own clothes. She made a t-shirt with the drawing she had designed 3 years before. She loved that t-shirt, and she wore it every day. At the age of 11, she was cooking spaghetti (and she was paying attention to her pet, a cat) when her t-shirt got on fire. She cried for 2 days. But when she was 16, her life changed. When she was in secondary school, she created a group with her four best friends. The group had an aim: to stop the fights at school. The first month, this took place only in her school, but in the third month a lot of people joined the group and started a movement. This plan started in all of New York’ s schools. They needed to create a sign and clothes to show their own identity. They used the design that was on the t-shirt that got on fire. IT LOOKED LIKE THIS:

But they didn´t have a name. In some parts of New York, people called them “Hip” and in other parts, people called them “Pie”. So they put the two parts together and it formed the word HIPPIE. They started to be anti-war, they believed in harmony with nature and one year later they started to like a lot of the music and especially “The Beatles”. They went to all the concerts of “The Beatles” and many other bands. But the best music festival they went to was Woodstock in 1969.

He started looking for another job. He found a job in a travelling circus, in Beijing. In 2012, he travelled to New York with the circus. Tito liked the city and he wanted to stay there, but the circus didn´t want him to leave. Tito was sad. The next day, he left the circus and the whole circus was looking for him all over New York. One day the owner of the circus found Tito in a bar eating pizza. He tried to persuade him to return to the circus, but he refused. When Tito went back to his house he saw a lot of photos that he had from the circus and he remembered how important he was for the circus and he decided to go back. With the passing of time, he became the best clown in the world.

So one day he invented the app… “Whatsapp.” And then the government paid him $19.000.000 dollars.

But he had competence: a guy called Mark Zuckerberg, who invented: “Facebook.”
