Bookroo's summary

Katie is disheartened when she's cast as an earthworm in the school play, far from the star role she dreamed of. But as the curtain rises, Katie discovers that even the smallest parts can have the biggest impact. Can she turn her disappointment into a moment of triumph and prove that every role is worth celebrating? Join Katie on her journey to find the spotlight in the most unexpected way.

From the publisher

Katie is sad when she is cast as an earthworm in her school play, because that means she cannot be the star.
