-trayinase, age 12

 
I was in our school production, because I love musical theatre, and our play was doing great! But my friend Jan was just too nervous. At her part, she started studdering, then not saying anything, and then running across the stage crying! I knew her lines so I told the director I'd fulfill her role. Luckily I didn't have a role, and practiced with Jan, because if I didn't I wouldn't have known her lines and the show would be CATASTROPHE!

-Raquel, age 11

 
me and my class had to sing a song and play it on the recorder and i forgot how to play it.

-francine, age 10
