A chance to be on TV brings out the worst in fourth grader Lucy
McGee--and now her friends want her out of the Songwriting Club!
Lucy McGee and Phillip Lee are invited to perform a song on their
school's morning show--this is their big break! First, they agree to
keep it a secret from spotlight-stealing classmate Scarlett Tandy.
But what about the other members of the Songwriting Club? Lucy forgets
to tell them, setting off a chain of hurt feelings, a disastrous secret
party, a runaway brother, and much more. The loveable but impulsive Lucy
will have to write a lot of apology letters before everything can go
back to normal.
The delightful Lucy McGee series features a diverse cast of fourth and
fifth grade characters who all love to sing and play the ukulele in the
Songwriting Club; funny and sweet illustrations on every page; and song
lyrics for aspiring musicians to try out on their own. Called
Ramona-esque by the Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, Lucy
McGee is sure to be a reader favorite.
