If you have a [[:Category:A B Saddlewick|series of books]] set in a school, all to feature a different aspect of school life, you are duty bound it seems to feature a talent contest for the pupils. This series is no different, although of course the school is. It's where Maud goes, and she's the only human. So her fellow pupils can do formation vampire bat flying, or a wicked spell casting, and even the invisible girl will join in, ''showing off'' her gymnastics. What hope the poor human girl Maud, who has pretended to be an evil nasty 'Tutu' all year just to try and fit in?

[[Dork Diaries: Pop Star by Rachel Renee Russell]] is a series entry that got to the talent show more quickly. A slightly older, more masculine audience will find their equivalent in the popularity contest featured in [[The Slither Sisters: Tales from Lovecraft Middle School by Charles Gilman]].
