BFFs Madison and Alyssa have the summer planned out--long days at the beach, hanging out, baking cookies--but all that changes when Alyssa's mother and the film crew have to head back to Hollywood. Which means Alyssa is moving, just when Madison finally has a best friend. But there's a silver lining: Madison is invited to spend some time over the summer in Los Angeles Madison is excited to travel on her own, but she doesn't count on being homesick--or having to deal with her fear of dogs by sharing the house with Nadine, Alyssa's large but lovable Rottweiler. But the chance to meet Alyssa's recently discovered father and an opportunity to pay back an obnoxious tour guide give the best friends plenty of distractions--and show them both that they have much more strength than they ever realized.

Behind the scenes by Meg Tilly is about two best friends Madison and Alyssa. Madison and Alyssa live very different lives. Madison lives a normal life with her mom, dad, and little sister Gina. Alyssa, on the other hand, has a famous Hollywood actress mom named Jessica Ashton.

alexamorris06 Just like most teen girls, Madison and Alyssa love summer and spending every single moment together. But this summer would change, after the two girls were finished planning out their whole summer of fun Alyssa got the bad news that she and her mom have to move to Hollywood permanently. 5y
alexamorris06 The two girls were brokenhearted that they couldn‘t spend every single second together. But there was an upside, as Alyssa‘s mom invited Madison to spend the summer with them in Hollywood. After much deliberation, Madison‘s parents let her go to Hollywood with Alyssa and Jessica Ashton for the summer. 5y
alexamorris06 Soon the girls would be living a glorious life in Alyssa‘s big Hollywood home, with one downside Alyssa Rottweiler named Nadine. Madison was terrified of dog‘s but that would not stop her from having the best summer ever, with her BFF Alyssa. This book was an amazing read, as a girl who always dreamed about living in Hollywood and wants to explore Hollywood this book takes you around Hollywood with Madison and Alyssa. 5y
alexamorris06 No matter what life throws at you, you can overcome everything. For example in the Book Madison and Alyssa are faced with an obstacle which is Alyssa moving to Hollywood. The girls overcome this obstacle by asking their parents if Madison could spend the summer with Alyssa and her mom. No matter how far the girls are from each other they will always be BFF‘S! 5y
MissYaremcio Great job Alexa! I really appreciate how much detail you put into the summary! I like how you chose to interpret the symbol as overcoming obstacles! That is a literary technique called motif (when you use a theme as a symbol) and is usually hard to identify! Great work! 6/6 5y

This is an utterly charming middle grade novel about a 10 year old who's best friends with the daughter of a movie star. There are fun trips back-set (as an actor, Meg Tilly obviously knows Hollywood). I paired it with my son's outgrown pink elephant because reading it made me feel nostalgic for the days when my children gobbled cheerful books (as opposed to yet-another-girl-dead-books).

minkyb Oh I remember having the same feelings. It seemed that when my daughters were middle grade readers and beyond all the books had to do with someone dying. I remember Cheaper By the Dozen from my younger years lol. 8y
EloisaJames @minkyb I loved Cheaper by the Dozen!! No cancer, dystopia, or death! 8y
