Grades 7-10 Even with her dad's job loss and a move from Chicago to Houston, 16-year-old Maddie knows what she wantsreal friends, a career on the stage, and a guy just like Gene Kelly. The problem is most guys are into sports, not singing and dancing. Enter good-looking Jesse Morales, her new neighbor. The attraction is strong, but how could Maddie ever fall for a guy who loves baseball more than the stage? So she immerses herself in school and community theater, both of which are run by Jesse's mom, and makes new friends who get her. Still, she cannot get Jesse off her mind, and the attraction is mutual. Perhaps the seed of an idea from High School Musical led Rae to create her latest novel, but this novel takes on a life all its own. Narrated by Maddie's winsome voice and incorporating issues of race, vocational choice, tight finances, and what makes a family, this sweet romance has a classic feel that will find a wide readership among Glee fans.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2016, American Library Association.)
