Now to the story:
Fourteen year old Holly has a dream: She wants to sing on TV at the Friday Night ‘Haverty Talent Show’ which she watches every week together with her mother Wanda and her mothers friends Juanita Weaver and Ruby Simmons.
They all love to hear the young talents sing which are always the best students of the Haverty Collage.
One day, the famous Haverty Collage does a casting show for young talents and Holly is one of the thousand candidates. The only take tree girls ore boys and Holly sang so well, that the jury chooses her, she was the youngest student in Haverty ever.
She also gets a huge scholarship, otherwise she couldn’t go to this college because the small family wouldn’t be able to afford the money for this school.
Holly has to live in the school because it is far away from her hometown. She gets a room which she has to share with the crazy, rich girl Lydia, everybody calls her Ditz.
But after a while they get good friends and they always study together.
On one weekend, when Holly was at home, her mother Wanda tells her a truth story.
Wanda isn’t Hollys real mum, she was the woman who rescued her from a big fire which was in the house where Holly lived with her real parents. She was a little baby when the fire burned out and her parents died because of the fire.
That’s why Wanda has the big mole on her cheek.
From this time on, Holly was very proud of her mum and of her mole.
At the end of the story, Holly is allowed to sing at a “Mother day special” on TV.
The book tells, that the Love is in the whole world the language of the hearts, that people are how they are, with their hopes, their dreams, and their belief in love.
"Oh Holly, you're so much better than all these singers," sighed Wanda.
"Oh gee," said Holly, looking across at her mom, who would have been the prettiest woman in Biscay were it not for the disfiguring birthmark on her face. "How could an honest but poor Mississippi girl ever go to Haverty, the most expensive performing arts school in the South?"
I read this book because I wanted to know what a book is like when Britney Spears wrote it, and I think that she maybe is a better pop star than a author, but the story of the book was very nice.
I also liked the plot of the book. And it is written very lovely.
