Robyn's Monster Play

by Hazel Hutchins, illustrated by Yvonne Cathcart

tagged: humorous stories, theater
Description

Robyn feels The Raft, the class play, is unfair because it casts only three roles to the boys known as the 3"G's. Robyn starts her own play, The Monster that Ate the World, and learns how difficult it is to organize everything by herself. With the help of some classmates Robyn pulls it off, and finds that her feelings change.
