Reviews
The Horn Book Guide
“After landing the title role in Annie, Mallory can’t figure out why her best friend, Mary Ann, doesn’t seem happy for her. Could Mary Ann be jealous of Mallory’s newfound fame, not to mention her new (and kind of mean) actress friends? Mallory learns important lessons about friendship; the story’s focus on the excitement of staging a musical helps mask the message.” —The Horn Book Guide
Booklist
“The fourteenth volume in the Mallory series is a fast-moving chapter book depicting a low period in the girls’ strong friendship.” —Booklist
