STARR OF THE SHOW: Shiny Friends Super Squad #1
Author: Leigh Reagan Alley & Mark Nathan Hurry (Illustrator)
Pub. Date: October 1, 2023
Publisher: Piggy Bank Press
Formats: Paperback, eBook
Pages: 141
Starr and Sunny are best friends with a super-unbreakable
bond––at least until Starr tells a little lie that spirals into a great big
mess! Will the lie cost Starr her best friend, her passing science grade, and
her spot onstage at Fifth Grade Family Night? Or will friendship and the power
of forgiveness show a whole new squad how to shine?
“Starr of the Show is a heartwarming tale about
two friends, with a gentle message about forgiveness and letting go. Leigh
Reagan Alley tells a sweet story filled with preteen drama, humor, and witty
dialogue that entertains you from beginning to end. The characters are
compelling and feel like real elementary school kids. Even the fight between
Starr and Sunny is adorable, and their friendship is the story’s heartbeat.
Kids will find it easy to relate to either of them. The illustrations by Mark
Nathan Hurry add a nice touch to bring the characters to life. This is the kind
of book kids should read before aging up for Harry Potter. I loved every moment
of it and will gladly recommend it for preteens.” –Pikasho Deka for
