"Clements' fans will be hooked."
*School Library Journal*
"What is extraordinary is how Clements can continue to produce
realistic examples of kid power year after year. More than a
feel-good story with a message, this is another good read."
*Kirkus Reviews*
"Clements adds to his canon of school stories with this thoughtful
novel about an earnest and introspective girl who longs to wrap up
her sixth-grade year 'in a blaze of glory, a flash of triumph, a
burst of superstardom.'"
*Publishers Weekly*
