Based on a true story to the beginning of the storied career of children’s book author Jane Yolen, written by her very own daughter. Janie Yolen loves to read, write, dance, and sing. So when her teacher announces Janie's elementary class will perform a play, Janie is thrilled. There's just one problem . . . the play is boring. With the support of her teacher and classmates, Janie rewrites the play, resulting in a hit class musical. An inspiring and funny look at how a writer became a writer, told by another prolific author—Heidi E. Y. Stemple, Jane's own daughter!
