In this middle-grade novel―a hilarious spin-off of writer Tommy Greenwald and illustrator Rebecca Roher's Charlie Joe Jackson series―the class clown is suddenly a big-time movie star.
Pete Milano has always been the class clown and proud of it. What's the point of having friends if you can't make them laugh, right? Even if doing so has the unfortunate side effect of constantly getting him into trouble. But, for once, Pete's tricks have led him to just the right place at just the right time. Now he's about to become famous, because he's been asked to audition for the hottest new movie with the hottest girl costar. But balancing real life with movie life is way harder than it sounds. Will Pete's newfound fame mean losing his girlfriend and all his friends? Find out in Pete Milano's Guide to Being a Movie Star.

Tommy Greenwald is the author of the Charlie Joe Jackson series, as well as Katie Friedman Gives Up Texting!, Jack Strong Takes a Stand, and now Pete Milano's Guide to Being a Movie Star. He loves going to the movies, where is favorite snack is popcorn and Raisinettes mixed together.
Gr 4–6—Pete Milano, a popular character from the Charlie Joe Jackson series, literally gets his time in the spotlight. On the run after pulling a prank on one of his classmates, he gets discovered by a casting director looking to fill one of the starring roles in her new movie Sammy and the Princess. Complications ensue when Pete's friends feel like they are not important to him anymore and the budding friendship with his famous co-star puts a strain on his relationship with his girlfriend. Featuring much of the same characters of Greenwald's previous titles, this book stands on its own. Relevant background of the characters are provided and kids will have no problem following along. Young readers will enjoy Pete's humor and the various forms of storytelling (passages from the movie script are sprinkled throughout the text). The idea of a regular kid achieving something great will definitely appeal to readers.
