The Fizzy Whiz Kid

Overview

Readers will laugh along with all the misadventures--and sneak a peek behind the Hollywood curtain--in this sweet and funny novel.

When Mitchell Mathis moves to Hollywood with his academic parents, he soon realizes he's the only ordinary kid in a school of the powerful and famous. There's Skywalker Wong, whose parents are special effects gurus. And Julia Jodie Schwartz, named after her agent father's two highest-earning clients. And Dash Silverman, whose parents write the movies that everyone else seems to have memorized. In an attempt to feel like less of an outsider, Mitch goes to an open casting call, where he ends up being cast in a soda commercial that launches a popular catchphrase. Suddenly he's on TV, signing autographs, and riding in limos. But when the ad starts getting negative attention and he doesn't have time for his old friends and interests, fame doesn't seem like so much fun anymore. He'll need all his "acting" skills--and the help of his Hollywood-savvy classmates--to figure out how to go back to being a normal kid again. |||This book is sold in the US by Sony Electronics Inc.
