Description

From the author of Sarah, Plain and Tall, Patricia MacLachlan brings us the story of young Sylvie who lives on a farm in Wyoming. She is in the 4th grade and is a writer, but her life on the farm is not very exciting until she is given an opportunity at the local newspaper for the summer. In the process, she considers her parents' lives before the farm. I liked how the print is a bit larger than in a typical novel. ~Sara

Publisher's Description of Just Dance

Sylvie Bloom wants to find something new and exciting this summer—at least more exciting than the cows, goats, and chickens on her family's farm that she's become accustomed to. Luckily, Sylvie's teacher Mrs. Ludolf has the perfect idea. Sylvie can take over her husband Sheriff Ludolf's column in the newspaper for the summer, reporting on all the important events that happen in their small Wyoming town. Sylvie is thrilled to have a new challenge, but she's not sure she'll actually see anything amazing. At least nothing like the things her mother saw when she traveled the world as a famous opera singer.

Sylvie can't figure out why her mother would give up singing in front of thousands of people. Have she and her brother Nate been holding her mother back? And when her mother's old duet partner James Grayson writes that he's coming to perform nearby, will she be tempted to return to the stage, without them?
