The latest offering in this lighthearted series is sure to appeal to kids facing their own everyday challenges at school and looking for a likeable, relatable character like Sassy. In The Silver Secret, Sassy yearns to have a singing part in her school's musical despite her lack of vocal talents. She does have a secret love and skill for the piccolo given to her by her beloved Grammy (along with a shimmery bag) and imagines adding piccolo music to the school show. For now, though, she must be satisfied with a different sort of role in the production. When an unexpected hiccup threatens to halt the performance, will Sassy come to the rescue?
Fans of Judy Moody, Allie Finkle and other satisfying fiction will love author Sharon Draper's strong, bright characters and will surely yearn for more Sassy in their own stylish book bags.
