Cover of Reading Planet - Project Fame - Level 8: Fiction (Supernova)

Rachel is utterly fed up of being invisible to everyone around her. Her best friend barely listens to a word she says, her teachers overlook her in class and even her family never seem to notice she's there. If only she could do something to attract their attention. Something extraordinary. Something like accompanying her journalist father to an interview with the newest celebrity singer, Honey Bourne. Getting to rub shoulders with a pop star is absolutely what Rachel needs to give her the recognition she longs for. But after a jokey idea from the school librarian sets her on the path to creating a Fame Formula, a new plan starts to take shape. Unfortunately, this plan is about to draw Rachel into the orbit of the country's biggest prankster. Maybe having everyone know your name isn't such a good idea after all ...
