Backstage Fright

A very unlucky kid breaks a leg--so to speak--when it's time for the school play in the seventh book in The Very Worst Ever chapter book series!

When the famous Mr. Shae Pierre arrives to direct [REDACTED]'s school play, he won't accept anything but thespian perfection! It's all about projecting your voice, commanding the stage with flair, and staring at the audience until they applaud uncomfortably. [REDACTED] does his best to keep up, but on opening night, he realizes he's the only student not off-book! Luckily, his gloomiest friend knows all his lines. Working backstage has to be way easier than being on stage...right?

With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, The Very Worst Ever chapter books are perfect for emerging readers.
