Product Description: This must-have junior novel with an 8-page full-color insert retells the story of the much-anticipated theatrical release of High School Musical 3, which finds high school seniors Troy and Gabriella facing the prospect of being separated from one another as they head off to different colleges. Joined by the rest of the Wildcats, they stage an elaborate spring musical reflecting their experiences, hopes, and fears about the future. High School Musical 3 will be released in theaters in Fall 2008.
My son read it in just 2 days We loved the book and I loved that it offered something that my child would love to read. The story held pretty close to the movie which we didn't see until after he read the book.
HSM3 I really enjoyed reading this book. It helped me get a feeling of what the movie is going to be about. It was a fast read, but it was entertaining and kept my attention. I can't wait until the movie comes out this Friday.
Fine Novelization N. B. Grace has authored all three of the "High School Musical" novelizations, as well as several of the "Stories from East High". None of the books are exceptionally written, but despite being rather bland do tell the story well. This book follows the new theatrical movie to be released October 24th. I was pleasantly surprised with the plot, though Grace never made an attempt to make the writing more engaging. Instead, it dully and dutifully tells the final chapter in Troy and Gabriella's high school days. Bottom line: children under 12 will probably enjoy it and HSM-fanatics can get a sneak peek at what we'll be seeing on the big screen (the previous novelizations took quotes directly from the movie). Otherwise, you should save your $5 for something else.
