[Jasmine from How Useful It Is]

Read for my toddler's nap time. Mia and friends practice dancing their routine until Mia fall down and hurt herself. She worries she will have to miss the recital. Her teacher assigned her to be the special helper at the recital so she could be there even if she can't dance.

A cute book for very young readers. Might help kids feel better about taking roles outside of the spotlight to help others while still feeling rewarded.

[Maddie Patty]

This is a cute book. I loved the illustrations.

Look for ways to be helpful and happy

[Tracie]

When an injury prevents Mia from dancing in the big recital, she learns that being a star is about far more than just performing.

Sweet and cute, but a little pedantic.

My five year old stepdaughter was able to help me read this. It was a cute story about how you didn't always have to be the star to be important.

The big recital is coming up but Mia's hurt her paw. Can she still have a part in the show?
