Summary

Janie Yolen loves to read, write, dance, and sing. So when her teacher announces Janie’s elementary class will perform a play, Janie is thrilled. There’s just one problem… the play is boring. With the support of her teacher and classmates, Janie rewrites the play, resulting in a hit class musical.
