Part of the EllRay Jakes series
EllRay must choose between saving a friendship or ruining the school assembly.
EllRay is excited for Christmas, but first, he must lead the Winter Wonderland assembly at Oak Glen Primary. Tasked with memorizing lines, his challenge intensifies when a friend dares him to perform a risky stunt onstage. Completing it could save their friendship but at the cost of the assembly's success. Will EllRay risk it all for friendship, or will he find a way to balance both? As the pressure mounts, EllRay faces a not-so-merry dilemma that could change everything.
It’s December at Oak Glen Primary School and all EllRay can think about is Christmas. As far as he’s concerned, Christmas is the best–no school, presents, fun parties, and lots of cookies! But before EllRay can celebrate with his family, he must lead half the school in the Winter Wonderland assembly. How tough can it be to memorize a few lines? Very tough, especially when EllRay’s soon-to-be ex-friend gives him a challenge to perform onstage. If he completes the challenge, he’ll save his friendship…but he’ll also ruin the assembly. EllRay is in for a not-so holly jolly time.
