The panic it creates is clearly felt.  Rather than a real life situation, it's a scene and part of the script that Mia is writing. Mia and her friends are buy filming the scenes where all sorts of things happen, not just in the script, like tripping over lamp posts.


Mia's mum loves to play pranks so she has to watch out, but she is also a loving caring mum.The drawings of the characters and the other illustrations really make the story and it's many parts of filming a show stand out.


Easy to read, this latest story is well written, fun-filled, energetic story with loads of humour and sure to appeal to the age group with words to grow the readers vocabulary. It is a good follow on rom the first in the series,Mia the Megastar with a more interesting story line.
