About This Book
A parent should reach for this book when their child is facing performance anxiety about a school play, recital, or presentation. 'School Musical Meltdown' follows Yasmin, who is disappointed to be cast as a non-singing rock in the school musical while her friend gets the lead. The story gently explores her feelings of jealousy and stage fright, but ultimately celebrates how her small role becomes heroic when things go wrong. It's a humorous and reassuring story for early chapter book readers that normalizes big feelings and champions the idea that every contribution matters, no matter how small.
