It sounds like you really connected with the story and the behind-the-scenes theater stuff. I think kids are a little wary of this book at first, thinking it will be boring since it deals with dusty old plays (by Shakespeare, alas, alack!), but it's been cool to see how readers do get swept up in Junebug's story and learn some theater history without it being bonked over the head. Thanks again for the wonderful review! Very best, Heather Henson Melissa,
