Starring Jules is a lovely middle grade series, beautifully illustrated and will appeal to junior fans of The Disney Channels Hannah Montana. Jules is in show business, having already featured in a major movie, and now is on the verge of her first screening of a regular series in which she plays Sylvie, her character the opposite of how Jules relates to her world. Away from the sitcom set, Jules could be any third grader found anywhere in the world. She worries about being liked, being a good student and shy's away from attention. She has an incredibly entertaining, but sometimes annoying little brother who has just started Kindergarten, her parents promote a healthy lifestyle when all Jules wants is chocolate and the anticipation of school is enough to keep her awake at night. It was charming, whimsical and girls will adore this series.
The illustrations are simplistic yet beautiful, and allow children to visualise the turmoil she faces at school. A lovely series especially for girls under twelve who will be able to relate to Jules as a role model and friend when they need her most.
