Brewster Gaines just wanted to make a video and get a million views - he didn't count on needing friends to get there. From the author of Spontaneous and the Locker 37 series comes a heartfelt story of friendship, family, and filmmaking.
âA well-rounded, heartfelt tale of creativity and family.ââKirkus Reviews, starred review
âA Million Views turns its lens on YouTube fame in a way thatâs fun, educational, and inspiring.ââRyan North, New York Times best-selling author of The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl
âA celebration of the creative spirit in all of us!ââRob Harrell, author of Wink
Brewster Gaines loves everything about making videos. The planning, the filming, the editing, and especially the feeling of watching his YouTube views tick up and up. So what if he doesnât have friends to film with or parents who are home every night for dinner? Heâs got a phone and a tripod and a lofty goal:
A million views.
But when he enlists the acting chops of charismatic new kid Carly for a ten-second video, he gets more than he bargained for. Her intimidating friend Rosa soon steps in with funding to produce an epic fantasy trailer, and before long, their tiny team is adding cast and crew. What started as a simple shoot mutates into a full-fledged movie production, complete with method-acting cosplayers, special effects, and a monster made out of a go-kart. Thatâs when Brewster realizes that getting to a million views may be harder than he ever imagined . . .
