Illustrated by
Christine Davenier.
In fairy-princess wannabe Gerry's latest outing, she's a chorus member hell-bent on a solo in the school's winter concert. When the adult soloist recruited by the music teacher is waylaid, Gerry gets her moment of glory. This well-paced story offers a dubious message: apparently Gerry spells "teamwork" with an I. As always, Davenier's ink and colored-pencil art dances before our eyes.
