The School Musical Meltdown

by Jessica Gunderson, Sumin Cho (Illustrator)

Overview

Kamilla is an amazing singer, but she refuses to try out for the school musical. She simply can't stand the thought of everyone staring at her, when she sees herself as overweight. Led by her mom, Kamilla sees a doctor who tells her she's a healthy weight but encourages her to exercise to feel better, both physically and mentally. Will Kamilla's new habit lead to big changes, or is she stuck waiting in the wings forever? This Junior High Drama edition discusses a common concern in a healthy, thoughtful way.
