In this heartwarming and funny middle-grade novel by the New York Times bestselling author of Counting by 7s, Julia grows into herself while playing a Munchkin in The Wizard of Oz
Â
Julia is very short for her age, but by the end of the summer run of The Wizard of Oz, sheâll realize how big she is inside, where it counts. She hasnât ever thought of herself as a performer, but when the wonderful director of Oz casts her as a Munchkin, she begins to see herself in a new way. As Julia becomes friendly with the poised and wise Oliveâone of the adults with dwarfism whoâve joined the productionâs motley crew of Munchkinsâand with her deeply artistic neighbor, Mrs. Chang, Juliaâs own sense of self as an artist grows. Soon, she doesnât want to fade into the backgroundâand itâs a good thing, because her director has more big plans for Julia!
Â
Bubbling over with humor and tenderness, this is an irresistible story of self-discovery and of the role models who forever change us.
