Summary

Based on a true story about children’s book author Jane Yolen, "the Hans Christian Andersen of the Americas," this charming book celebrates creativity and the magic of a loving community. 
  
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. 
  
"An inspiring and funny look at how a writer became a writer, told by another prolific author."—Heidi E. Y. Stemple, Jane's own daughter!
