Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A STAR IS BORN, HIPPO STYLE in this riotous tribute to life upon the stage. Determined to be a star, Darlene signs up for theater class.  And she succeeds, though not in the way you might expect.  In Noah's Ark she's cast as the Flood, with cataclysmic results.  She mangles her lines in a science fiction epic.  And as Sleeping Beauty, she, well, sleeps.  The funniest book yet by an acclaimed author and artist, this picture book romp will have readers dancing in the aisles.
