Reviews / Votes
Who remembers Fame on television? Even those who are too young will be pleased to welcome Cindy Jefferies' new Fame School series, which will follow Chloe and her friends from their acceptance at Rockley Park School to eventual fame (maybe). The glittery jackets will attract girls who are drawn to follow in Chloe's footsteps. The series has its practical side. Jefferies' children are involved in the music business and she has learned from their experiences. The message is positive and helpful; the story is fast-moving, involving and sure enough to leave readers eager for more, so each book leaves us with a chapter from the next one. In the second book, Rising Star, Chloe has made it to Rockley Park but loses her voice before the big concert and has to share a room with someone who's far from a friend. * Adele Geras TES *More details
