Jessie Witt’s dream of singing in New York is about to come true . . . if she can survive a few nightmares first: The nightmare of the missing luggage. The nightmare of the nasty soprano. Worst of all, the nightmare of a sore throat that won’t quit.
Jessie meets the challenges like a true New Yorker, head on. And she manages to take a big bite of the Big Apple, too: from digging up bones at the Museum of Natural History to gawking at the view; from the top of the Empire State Building.
Jessie gives the scoop on her favorite places in a special guide and map to New York. Use them to plan a great trip of your own.
