Spectacularly Mediocre Maisey

By Kalee Boisvert

Maisey isn't the best at... well, anything.

Not at cartwheels.

Not at singing.

Not even at tying her shoes quickly.

But what Maisey is great at?

Trying.

Laughing.

And diving into life with her whole, wonderfully wiggly self.

So when her school's talent show sign-up sheet goes up, Maisey writes her name without a second thought. She has no plan-just the feeling that it could be fun. While everyone else seems to have their "thing," Maisey's attempts at piano, karate, and gymnastics turn into hilarious disasters. And when her friend Evie has a stage-fright stumble, Maisey does what she does best: she shows up with heart.

With a burst of creativity (and a pile of pool noodles, cardboard, and tape), Maisey builds something no one sees coming-a performance that isn't about being the best at all, but about bringing everyone together.

A joyful, laugh-out-loud celebration of bravery, creativity, and trying new things just because they make you happy, Spectacularly Mediocre Maisey reminds kids that you don't have to shine the brightest to light up a room. You just have to be you.

Perfect for readers who love:

- School talent show stories

- Celebrating quirky creativity

- Characters with big hearts and even bigger imaginations

- Books about confidence, courage, and being yourself

Spectacularly mediocre? Maybe.

Spectacularly Maisey? Absolutely.
