Description
Thirteen-year-old Calvin knows he's destined to be a star. . . if he can just stop making embarrassing mistakes onstage, like getting stuck on a single line—"Forsooth!"—and then falling off the stage during the school play.
The summer after seventh grade, he's hoping for a fresh start. All he has to do is prove himself as an actor and fix the awkwardness with his friends that started after the play.
But nothing's going according to plan. His parents don't get his love of performing. His best friend is moving on without him. And he might have a crush that could change everything.
Surrounded by drama on all sides, Calvin will have to go off script if he's going to be a real friend and be true to himself.
Advance Praise
"A must-read for the shining stars in your life!" —Adam Sass, award-winning author of The 99 Boyfriends of Micah Summers and Surrender Your Sons
"Forsooth dives into the confusing collision of faith, friendships, and first crushes with a winning combination of tenderness and laugh-out-loud humor. I fell hard for Calvin Conroy, in all his messy glory, from the very first page. This is a book I wish I could deliver via time machine to my thirteen-year-old self." —Chad Lucas, author of Thanks a Lot, Universe
