Krissy the flamingo decides to audition for her favorite reality TV singing competition. There's just one small problem: Krissy is a terrible singer. Krissy is a fun-loving flamingo who adores singing karaoke. When auditions for her favorite reality TV competition come to her hometown, Krissy's friends convince her to audition -- even though she's never sung in front of an audience before! When Krissy summons the courage to perform on stage for the first time, she realizes that she loves entertaining more than anything in the world and never wants to do anything else. Unfortunately, her feeling of joy is cut short when she overhears other contestants making fun of her singing. She runs out of the theater, heartbroken and embarrassed, determined never to show her face in public again. But while Krissy's performance may not have impressed the other contestants, it does catch the eye of someone extraordinary who shows Krissy that perfection isn't all it's cracked up to be and that you truly shine when you believe in yourself. Early elementary school children will love examining the vivid details of 34 bright, beautiful, full-page illustrations of Krissy the flamingo and her animal pals. Even parents and teachers who don't do character voices will enjoy reading aloud the story of Krissy's emotional experience and eventual triumph. (The book also includes a few humorous references just for the adult readers that are sure to elicit a smile.) Krissy Braves the Stage is an excellent "crossover book" for kids who usually prefer television over literature.

Autorenporträt
Morgan Pinales has been a storyteller since the age of 10 (and probably longer if we're counting fibs as stories). In fifth grade, she would scramble to finish her regular schoolwork as quickly as possible, so that she could spend her extra time writing in the library. In high school, Morgan further honed her writing skills when she was selected for a special 2-year program that replaced traditional high-school English class with a more intensive writing-focused course that allowed students to submit pieces for competitions. Later, when Morgan attended college at Rice University, she continued to pursue her love of language by studying linguistics and second language acquisition. After graduation, she worked as a professional copywriter for several years before pursuing a master's degree in advertising, with a focus on copywriting, from The University of Texas. While Morgan enjoyed the creative environment of the advertising industry, she felt like she was missing out by always telling someone else's story instead of her own. For years, she filled this gap by writing children's books for friends and family as gifts or remembrances. Because those books were always among the kids' favorites, she decided to share those stories with a wider audience by publishing her children's books. Morgan thinks you're never too old for playgrounds, costumes, cartoons, sing-alongs, stickers, glitter, fuzzy house slippers, and hiding under the covers. More than anything, she loves laughing and using her imagination. You can find Morgan's children's books and other creative endeavors on Instagram (@morganpinales).
