Bookroo's summary

Felix, a gentle guinea pig, finds courage with his bold friend Fiona. Swept into a talent show, they win, but taunts threaten Felix's confidence. Can he overcome the bullies with Fiona's help and discover the secret to standing up for himself?

From the publisher

From the creator of Max and Ruby comes a quiet, sweet-natured guinea pig who stands up to teasing with a tip from his bold new friend. Felix has a new best friend! With take-charge Fiona, anything seems possible, and before Felix knows it, she sweeps him into singing and dancing with her as pixies in the Guinea Pig Jubilee talent show. But right after Felix’s first-prize triumph, trouble waits in the wings. “Twinkletoes!” someone taunts, and Felix crumbles. Can he pull himself together and face down the bullies? With a little help from Fiona, can Felix find a magic key that unlocks the secret to standing up–to anyone?
