From Tony Award–winning actress Ali Stroker and Stacy Davidowitz,
an inspiring and heartfelt middle-grade novel about a
theater-loving girl who uses a wheelchair for mobility and her
quest to defy expectations—and gravity—now in
paperbackThirteen-year-old Nat Beacon loves a lot of things: her
dog Warbucks, her best friend Chloe, and competing on her
wheelchair racing team, the Zoomers, to name a few. But there’s
one thing she’s absolutely OBSESSED with: MUSICALS! From Hamilton
to Les Mis, there’s not a cast album she hasn’t memorized and
belted along to. She’s never actually been in a musical though,
or even seen an actor who uses a wheelchair for mobility on stage.
Would someone like Nat ever get cast? But when Nat’s family moves
from California to New Jersey, Nat stumbles upon auditions for a
kids’ production of Wicked, one of her favorite musicals ever!
And she gets into the ensemble! The other cast members are super
cool and inclusive (well, most of them)—especially Malik, the
male lead and cutest boy Nat’s ever seen. But when things go awry
a week before opening night, will Nat be able to cast her fears and
insecurities aside and “Defy Gravity” in every sense of the
song title?
