8. Plot  The plot of The Rising Star of Rusty Nail is very interesting.  The Rising Star of Rusty Nail was about two girls. One of them is named Franny and she has a passion to play the piano. A Russian moves into town, she is a musician she moves at the time when the Americans weren’t friends with the Russians. Franny’s piano teacher can’t teach her any more so she asked the Russian to teach her. She starts to work for her to get lessons. The Russian starts to teach Franny’s worst enemy Prancy too!! The Russians friend comes into town. There is a big show and Prancy wins against Franny. The Russians friend watches the show. The Russians friend is actually a special person. Read the book to find out what happens!!!!  It’s not so bad to come in second any way but maybe not up against your worst enemy it’s not.

9. Suggestions  I loved this book. I really hope people get a chance to read it.  I liked the book because I like to play the piano and the book had a lot to do with the piano. I also liked the book because it just got kept getting better and better as I read on.  I learned a little bit what the Russians were like how they acted and how they looked and how the Americans and Russians really didn’t like each other.  I would recommend this book to anyone because you are always wondering what is going to happen next and because sometimes you just think about that they really didn’t like each other or really even cared!!!!
