Parent Guide
Seventh grader Shira loves to sing, but she’s also an introvert who blushes when she’s the center of attention. When her best friend Cassie convinces her to try out for the school musical, The Music Man, Shira hopes to blend into the background in the ensemble, but instead she gets two very visible roles: a mustached member of the traditionally all-male barbershop quartet, and understudy to the mean girl who got the lead. This adorable book has well-drawn characters, a great message about accepting yourself as you are, and a lot of heart.

I loved this book!
I really liked the book UPSTAGED; here are some of the things I liked about it. First of all, the characters were great. There were a lot of characters with different personalities, witch made the book more interesting. I also liked Shira's taste in music. The Music Man seems like a fun school play!
