This book was received as an ARC from Random House Children's - Random House Books for Young Readers in exchange for an honest review. Opinions and thoughts expressed in this review are completely my own.

I love how this book really focuses on the power of words and how important it is to have that self confidence to speak up for what you believe is right. I can relate to Charlotte's story and how at first she did not want to get into musical theatre but discovered she has a gift for singing and when she started to get into her groove, the music program at her school has been cut out of the school budget. Now, that she discovered her voice, Charlotte does not hold back and finally uses her voice to save the musical. This book is inspirational more than ever and was perfectly timed at its release date. People need to rely on themselves to speak up for their beliefs and not rely on others and hope and pray that it all gets better.

We will consider adding this title to our JFiction collection at our library. That is why we give this book 5 stars.
