My Review:

Malik and Craig are part of an acting troupe with one rival: Jonah, who is jealous that the guys always got the good parts. When Jonah seeks revenge during the next production of The Nutcracker, things go terribly wrong, and start to backfire!

 

I gotta admit, when I was a kid, I was terrified of the Nutcracker. The way those jaws just chomped-chomped-chomped! But you know what? Reading this story, as an adult, I can’t help but picture the Nutcracker in all his chomping glory and think, Awesome! Ooh, this story was too good. I read it and thought, If only I could see that kind of show for real! I don’t know about you, but I think I prefer THIS version of The Nutcracker much more. Good frightful and gory story! I loved it – especially the ending!

 

 

Five stars
