New York Times bestselling author Jen Calonita tells the story of four best friends . . . all named Taylor (and all Swifties!) figuring out how to survive middle school together.
When the Taylors learn that this year's fifth grade school trip over spring break is to Nashville, they can't believe their luck. The trip will include a trip to the Country Music Hall of Fame, which offers school workshops like Songwriting 101, which is aspiring songwriter Teffy's dream come true!
But a trip this big doesn't come without a few bumps. Taylor has never been away from her family before and is nervous. Can she overcome her fears and join her friends? Will Teffy continue to use her voice in her songwriting class where there are many talented young aspiring writers just like herself? Can TS relax and have fun instead of worrying she made a big mistake by skipping a huge soccer tournament to go away with her friends? And how will Tay Tay survive her hellish assigned roommate-mean girl Hannah?
Can the girls learn to embrace life and be fearless? If they want to make this trip the adventure of a lifetime, they'll have to find a way to overcome their worries and fears the way they always do-by leaning on each other.
