And while she would totally try out for her middle school's production of <i>Moon over Mississippi</i>, she can't really sing. Instead she's the set designer for the drama department's stage crew, and this year she's determined to create a set worthy of Broadway on a middle-school budget. But how can she, when she doesn't know much about carpentry, ticket sales are down, and the crew members are having trouble working together? Not to mention the onstage AND offstage drama that occurs once the actors are chosen. And when two cute brothers enter the picture, things get even crazier! <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> * Another dead-on look at the confusing world of middle school. -- <i>Publishers Weekly</i>, starred review* With the clear, stylish art, the strongly appealing characters and just the right pinch of drama, this book will undoubtedly make readers stand up and cheer.
