Babymouse: Rock Star

Babymouse dreams of being a rock star. But her best hope is to not be last chair in the flute section at the next school concert. Unfortunately, the sound coming out of her flute is “SCREEEEEECCHH!” But there’s hope, a classmate and fellow flute player, and, not coincidentally, fellow sufferer of public humiliation inflicted by Babymouse’s arch nemesis Felicia Furrypaws, offers some helpful advice.

This book keeps you chuckling from start to finish. The story leads the reader through Baby Mouse’s dreams of becoming a Rock Star. Punctuated with dream sequences that reference Alice in Wonderland and The Pied Piper, Baby Mouse tries her best to play her way out of the last chair. With hard work and a little help from her friend finally succeeds. Baby Mouse learned that the technical side of music has its place but simply enjoying the music is just as important

This graphic novel teaches the valuable lesson of "practice makes perfect." Babymouse wants to be the best at playing the flute, but every time she tries, it squeeks, and she gets laughed at. Finally, one of her friends explains to her that she can't be good at playing the flute unless she practices. After practicing her tail off, she makes it to tryouts, and ends up being close to the first chair, and makes her family proud. She is now that much closer to reaching her dreams. I would recommend this book to an elementary student needing some type of encouragement. Even I need to be reminded that I can't go anywhere unless I practice.

The irrepressible Babymouse is back and this time she wants to be a rock star or maybe a flutist. Nothing can hold her back (except for possibly her lack of musical talent). Fans of funny, trouble-prone girl heroines such as Olivia the pig and Junie B. Jones will love this book. Mary

In this story, Babymouse dreams of being a rock star. What brought this dream on is the fact that she is in band practice at school. The bad news is that she is absolutely horrible at playing the flute and is the worst player in the band. Her arch-nemesis, Felicia Furrypaws, is also in the band, and also plays the flute, but is slightly better than Babymouse. Babymouse is determined not to be last chair again this year like she was last year. When she helps Penny Poodle, Penny reveals that she is a good flute player and begins to teach Babymouse how to play. The only question is whether Babymouse has enough time to improve enough to become a better musician than Felicia.

Babymouse is at it again- this time she's playing the flute in her school band. Although she thought she'd be a natural, it takes more work than Babymouse thought it would! She's determined not to be last chair in the school concert... and with a little help from a friend, she just might succeed! Another hit from the awesome Babymouse series, featuring a spunky heroine with tons of imagination.
