VIP: I'M WITH THE BAND
VIP: I’M WITH THE BAND by Jen Calonita is the first installment of a fun new middle-grade series about a 12-year-old girl who gets to go on tour with her favorite boy band.
Twelve-year-old Mackenzie "Mac" Lowell's dreams are about to come true. Thanks to her mom scoring the coolest job EVER, Mac is going from boy band fanatic to official tour member of her favorite group, Perfect Storm. Good thing she's brought along her journal so she can record every moment, every breath, and every one of lead singer Zander Welling's killer smiles in written detail and doodles throughout the pages.
But between a zillion tour stops and pranks-gone-wrong, Zander and his fellow band members Heath and Kyle become more like brothers to Mac. Which makes it all the worse when the boys' differences start to drive them apart. Can Perfect Storm's biggest fan remind them why they're perfect together? It'll be up to Mac--and her comic book alter-ego Mac Attack--to keep the band together and on the road to stardom.
Chronicling her experiences on tour, Mac's journal springs to life with black-and-white illustrations and comic book panels throughout its pages.
Jen Calonita knows all the inside scoop about boy bands. As a former entertainment editor at a teen magazine, she hit the road with ’Nsync, hung backstage with 98 Degrees, went on location for Joey Fatone and Lance Bass’s movie, and met Joey McIntyre. (Personal note from my pre-teen self: Squeal!!!) Jen has interviewed everyone from Reese Witherspoon to Zac Efron, and has written for popular magazine including Teen People, TV Guide, Glamour, and Marie Claire. Jen is also a popular children’s author. SECRETS OF MY HOLLYWOOD LIFE was her first YA series (also published by Little Brown) and been published in 9 territories. She has written novels about summer camp and reality tv, and most recently, a middle-grade series about fairies. She lives in New York with her husband, Mike; sons, Dylan and Tyler; and their Chihuahua, Captain Jack Sparrow.
