Bookroo's summary

Pinky dreams of stardom, eager to snag the lead in the school play. Rex, however, dreads the stage, fearing forgotten lines and embarrassment. When Pinky persuades Rex to audition, their friendship faces a test. Will the pressures of performance strengthen their bond or tear them apart? As the curtain rises, the true drama unfolds offstage. Discover if their friendship can withstand the spotlight's glare.

From the publisher

Pinky and Rex is the perfect series for early readers learning to read and navigate friendships! Pinky really wants to be an actor and is sure he’ll get the lead in the school play. Rex, on the other hand, wants nothing to do with being on stage. She’s afraid she’ll forget her lines–or worse. Everything changes when Pinky convinces Rex to go with him to the tryouts. Will Pinky and Rex still be best friends when the show is over?
