Summer in the City

It's summer, and Mango happily spends her time babysitting her brother, hanging with her friend Izzy, and binge-watching movies. Then her drama teacher Bob breaks the news: Yo, Romeo! is headed to New York City . . . and he wants Mango to star! After convincing her reluctant mom, Mango goes off to Brooklyn to stay with her Aunt Zendaya in a teeny apartment and prepare for her debut. It's the opportunity of a lifetime, but soon Mango must confront homesickness, insecurity, and how to be a good friend . . . even when she's far away.
