First published in 1935 by the Goldsmith Publishing Company, this classic installment of the Janet Hardy series plunges its spirited young protagonist into the glamorous, fast-paced world of Hollywood's Golden Age. The adventure begins at home, where high school student Janet and her close friend Helen eagerly prepare for tryouts in their school's dramatic production. Excitement reaches a fever pitch with the impending return of Helen's father, a famous film director. This connection quickly opens doors to the film industry, taking Janet and her companions from local stage anxieties to the bustling backlots of California. From navigating life-threatening perils in Little Deer Valley to visiting a star-studded movie set for a sweeping Western film, Janet experiences firsthand the hard work, integrity, and perseverance required to succeed behind the silver screen. Filled with classic 1930s charm, this coming-of-age narrative serves as an inspiring tribute to friendship, personal ambition, and the timeless allure of the performing arts.
