A young girl in middle school will do whatever it takes to meet her favorite author—even if it means joining her school band! A contemporary graphic novel about making your dream come true—and the friends you make along the way.
When Scout learns that her favorite author is doing an exclusive autograph session at the end of the year, she’s determined to be there! She officially needs a plan…and when she finds out that her school’s band is heading to the same location for their annual trip, an idea takes shape. Being a band kid can’t be that hard, right?
As it turns out, learning how to play an instrument when you can’t even read music is much, much, MUCH tougher than expected. And it’s even harder for Scout when her friends aren’t on board with her new hobby. Will she be able to master the trombone, make new band friends, and get to her favorite author’s book signing? Tackling everything seems like a challenge for a supergenius superfriend supermusician—and she’s just Scout.

HIT CATEGORY: Girl-driven contemporary middle grade graphic novels are HUGE and the market is nowhere near saturated. Perfect next read for fans of Roller Girl, Awkward, Be Prepared, Smile and Click!
BAND: Learning to play an instrument has never been funnier in this love letter to middle school band. Music education and instruments is something most kids will be able to relate from their time at school.
AMAZING ART: Jade’s fantastic style will have the reader laughing and smiling with the characters on each page as they fall in love with the should-be-animated world that Jade has brought to life.
S&L OPPORTUNITY: We hear from teachers and librarians that they can’t keep graphic novels on their shelves! This is a perfect graphic novel for middle school kids looking for a fun read, on top of this book’s potential in the trade market.
