Book excerpt: For star-struck teenagers living in Okinawa, the first step to fame and fortune is an appearance on an American Idol-like TV show called Boom Boom. If they can wangle their way onto this weekly program, they have a shot to become Japan's next big thing. But first, these pop-star wannabes must first enroll in the big city's actor's school where competition between classmates is spirited and ruthless! With the help of her guardian angel, a gargoyle-like statue named Cesar, little Airi begins taking classes at the school. One way or another, she's going to make her dreams come true! Everybody who enrolls at the Okinawa Actors School has big dreams: They're all hoping to sing and dance their way to the top of the Hit Parade. But show business is a fickle business as Airi Ishikawa is quickly finding out. Fresh off a big and successful Boom Boom concert, she discovers that her friends -- and not her -- will be given an opportunity to pursue solo careers. Frustrated and dejected, she considers dropping out of school. There's no doubt Airi's got all the talent in the world. The question remains, however: Does she have the inner strength needed to bounce back from the occasional, yet inevitable, setback?
