Abby is excited for her first day of middle school, but her wardrobe needs a lot of help. And with the unreasonably low budget her mom allocated for shopping, she needs to do something drastic if she wants anything decent to wear. She’s able to work out a deal for a must-have jacket, but she still has to figure out a way to pay her mom back for the loan to buy it.

When Abby is assigned a class project to start a club, she gathers up her closest friends and they start the CEO Girls Club.

Creative. Entrepreneurial. Opportunities. Girls Club for girls who want to start their own businesses. Their first project is to help Abby and Emma start a babysitting business to earn extra money.

But that’s not the only assignment on Abby’s mind. She also has to sing a song by herself on Back To School night. She’s terrified and doesn’t think she’ll be able to get up in front of the whole school and sing, but with the support of her friends and family...and a certain boy she really likes, she’s able to summon up enough stage courage to pass the test.

Stage Courage is the first CEO Girls Club book with the goal of inspiring girls of all ages to follow their passions and learn how to make money from the things they love to do. Kristina Renee is always looking for authors interested in co-writing or submitting ideas for future CEO Girls Club books.
