Nine-year-old Fiona Finkelstein comes from a family of drama in Ordinary, Maryland. Her dad is the Chief Meteorologist of the local tv station and her mom is out in California starring in a soap opera called "Hearts and Diamonds." But when Fiona gets called to perform, her name changes from Finkelstein to Vomitstein and she's facing a challenge right now. Her La Petite ballet class has been invited to perform the Nutcracker with The Maryland Ballet. The girls will be angels. Fiona isn't a natural at angels. In fact she just had a trip to the principal's office. Can she really take the stage without disaster? Can she believe in herself? Can she overcome her insecurities? Humor and frilly fun abound. 166 pages
