What is I want to be on TV about?

A child dreams of appearing on television and imagines all the exciting ways it might happen. Could they become a famous actor, sing to a huge audience or star in a funny programme? With lively illustrations and simple text, this playful early reader follows the character’s determined attempts to make the dream come true. Along the way, readers discover that being on TV may not be quite as easy—or quite as glamorous—as it first seems.
