Between going out with his celebrity crush and his mom's campaign to be the next town mayor, Danny's got a lot to learn about life in the spotlight.
When Danny Constantino asks his old-friend-turned-Hollywood-movie-star, Natalie Flores Griffin, to his local school dance and homecoming parade, she surprises him . . . by saying yes! Unfortunately, now everyone in Cuper Cove has something to say about Danny's love life—especially since Natalie is the hometown hero. Throw in herds of TV reporters and NFG groupies, his mom using Natalie's arrival for free publicity, and a pep rally gone horribly, horribly awry, and Danny's left absolutely clueless in this new world of crushes and becoming (kind of) famous.

      Gr 4-7-Danny's seventh-grade world is exploding. His mother is running for mayor, which means she will be away from home even more than now; his friends are building a giant cardboard unicorn that moves; and movie star Natalie Flores Griffin, Danny's former best friend, is coming to the Halloween dance as Danny's date. Except that Danny didn't really invite her-his friend Ajay's big sister took Danny's phone and, pretending to be Danny, sent the invitation. The only sane person in his world seems to be Danny's grandmother, Gram, who ends up in the hospital. What else can go wrong? Narrator Michael Crouch reads Danny's first-person POV, authentically relaying his angst, comedic adventures, and cluelessness around girls. Crouch's portrayal of Gram with a scratchy-yet-warm voice reflects her sharp-yet-caring personality. Humorous escapades combined with Danny's nervousness about his first date and his overwhelming bewilderment with life in general are performed with ease and skill. VERDICT The result is a charming audio that perfectly captures the wackiness of seventh grade.-Julie Paladino, formerly with East Chapel Hill H.S., NC
