Description
Ten-year-old Carrie O'Connor has lots of questions.
Where does her mother, a famous New York children's writer, find ideas for her best-selling Michael Madigan series? Why does her father, a busy surgeon, sometimes spend more time curing people than caring for her? How would her life change if she landed a role in a play directed by a Broadway director?
Carrie unwraps the answers in a Junior Library Guild selection called "a love song to the theatre...a love song to life."
Selected for William Allen White and Mark Twain Master Lists.
