Lights! Camera! Action! A new chapter book star is on the rise!
Things to Know About Meby Jules Bloom1. I am a scrambled-eggs-and-chocolate-milk type person. 2. I have an audition for a TV commercial (which would be great if I were a tall-icy-drink type person.)3. I am in between best friends right now.4. I am worried that the audition will be a disaster. (See #1 and #3!)Jules doesn't want to ruin THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME, and she's willing to turn to anyone for help--even her know-it-all ex-best friend! If only that lovely new girl in class would turn out to be the new best friend of her dreams,maybe, just maybe, Jules will be ready for her close-up....

"Debut author Ain introduces a new chapter-book darling with pizzazz and quite a stage presence." -Kirkus A Pennsylvania girl at heart, Beth Ain fell in love with life in New York City, and she loves trying to capture the essence of family life there. Thankfully, she now has the benefits of both city and small town life, having settled in Port Washington, NY, where she lives very happily with her husband and their two kids. From Starring Jules (As Herself):
"You know what?" Charlotte says. "I think you are kidding and that you are not at all allergic to those things. I think you just don't really want my help and what I think is that you are never going to get that commercial, Jules Bloom, and it serves you right, anyway, for dumping a superstar best friend like me in the first place."
"I did not dump you, Charlotte!" I say louder than I usually speak. "You dumped me when you and the ABC's started whispering to each other about fancy towels at fancy hotels, which is exactly when you started liking lip gloss more than swing sets!"
"Well, why didn't you just say that in the first place?!? And maybe you're the one who likes swing sets more than lip gloss, and who says that's better anyway?!" Charlotte shouts back. Then she stomps away, and Brynn and Abby follow.
I stare at her for a long time after she walks away, and even though she said a lot of things, I can only think about the part she said about me not getting the commercial. Praise for Starring Jules #1: Starring Jules (As Herself)
