Publisher Description
In the sequel to Odyssey Award Honor Audiobook and Stonewall Honor Book, Better Nate Than Ever, Nate Foster’s Broadway dreams are finally coming true. Now on CD and as an audio download!
Armed with a one-way ticket to New York City, small-town theater geek Nate is off to start rehearsals for E.T.: The Broadway Musical. It’s everything he ever practiced his autograph for! But as thrilling as Broadway is, rehearsals are nothing like Nate expects: full of intimidating child stars, cut-throat understudies, and a director who can’t even remember Nate’s name.
Now, as the countdown to opening night is starting to feel more like a time bomb, Nate is going to need more than his lucky rabbit’s foot if he ever wants to see his name in lights. He may even need a showbiz miracle.
The companion novel to Better Nate Than Ever, which The New York Times called “inspired and inspiring,” Five, Six, Seven, Nate! is full of secret admirers, surprise reunions, and twice the drama of middle school...with a lot more glitter.

"[A] funny, tender coming-of-age story, which doubles as an insider account about growing up on stage that will appeal to every budding theater geek. Encore!”
— Publishers Weekly (starred review) -
“Nate will sing and dance his way right into readers’ hearts. This is an encore performance that will leave them standing in the aisles.”
— Kirkus Reviews (starred review) -
“Everyone could use a little more glitter in their lives, and Nate shares his with those who are willing to celebrate that being an understudy can one day earn you top billing.”
— School Library Journal -
“Provides a plot-driven, exaggerated exposé behind the scenes of a Broadway show that’s sure to entertain, and it continues to use Nate’s naïveté and the zany characters of the theater for laugh-out-loud levity…Will certainly be applauded by his loyal fan base.”
— Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books -
“Readers will cheer Nate along while also relating to him because, as Nate sagely observes, Broadway is just ‘like a junior high school cafeteria but with more glitter.’”
