40bc Book 19: Short

Short
Author: Holly Goldberg Sloan

Julia auditioned for the Wizard of Oz play that was going on in the summer. She is very short for her age, so she got the part of a Munchkin. She becomes friends with Olive, a adult with dwarfism that has joined the play as a Munchkin as well. She also becomes friends with her neighbor Mrs. Chang, who turns out to be a nice person and someone who can make costumes. Then she gets the part of a flying monkey as well, with Olive, Mrs Chang and three professionals. At the start of the summer, Julia didn't think that being tall was a good thing, but know she thinks of it differently.

I give this book 5 stars because the book has lots of feelings to it, and it was hard to put it down. The ending is great and I recommended it to anyone over 6.
