1-3Jackson Friends series.
Howie imagines herself as the star of the talent show--singing her heart out in her sparkly new dress. But the second-grader gets the jitters during a rehearsal and can't sing a note. Howie's stage fright and her efforts to overcome it are tenderly conveyed in Edwards's text and illustrations.
