| book description |

It's 1973 and Jenny has been cast in a major motion picture. Her ordinary life is about to become extraordinary! From the Costa-winning author of Five Children on the Western Front. 12-year-old Jenny is in shock. She's just been cast as one of the lead roles in a feature film. She's going to be a child actor! Soon she must jet off to France, to the idyllic Château Mouchotte, where she will join her film family: three other children and two renowned actors. The glitz and glamour of being on set is a million miles away from Jenny's normal life, but showbiz is never straightforward and there's one fierce and famous actor that threatens the whole shoot. It's up to Jenny and her friends to keep the peace and save the film. Jenny is about to experience a life-changing summer in the spotlight! 'Joyous... Soaked in sunshine and the warmth of friendship.' The Sunday Times - Book of the Week 'As warm and welcoming as its title, it's sure to be a hit.' Guardian 'Generous and life-affirming. Tender and glorious to the end.' The Times - Book of the Week
