THE STORY

Thirteen year-old Edwina Spoonapple would do just about anything to be a part of the Kalamazoo Advice-A-Palooza Festival. While her siblings both have proof “up on the fridge" of their accomplishments, poor Edwina has nothing.

When a talent scout from the convention visits her hometown of Paw Paw, Michigan, she trots out her musical advice, giving shows live from the family garage in hopes of finding her place in the spotlight.

She is assisted by her older siblings and quirky friends and neighbours. Together they set out to tackle the world’s problems, in number after hysterical number about everything from birthday party etiquette to the proper way to set a table.
