Woo hoo! Lisa has done it again! This book was very cute, with fantastic characterization, and an unbelievable story line. And it wasn't fluff. This was about a very realistic girl that has to deal with family issues. No one dies or anything too drastic like that, but it's just normal family issues. I think every 12 year old girl can relate in so many ways to Isabel and the situations she's put in. I really felt a connection to Isabel and her life even though I'm 29 years old and was never inCupcakes are beautiful and wonderful things. A story about cupcakes, well, that'll easily draw me in. But this isn't just a story about cupcakes - it's about individuality, fear of failure, and wanting more out of life.SourceIsabel is a dreamer. She dreams of traveling the world like her flight attendant aunt, that her mom will stop jumping from idea to idea (she's currently on a mission to own a cupcake shop), and that she'll win a baking competition all on her own. Her mother is a dreamer too,
Yum I love cupcakes, they show you the recipes in the end!
Reviewed for My Comfy Chair - Safe, friendly Kid-lit reviewsIsabel is twelve and lives in the small town of Willow, Oregon. In fact, she's never been anywhere but Oregon, though she longs to travel the world like her Aunt Christy, who is a flight attendant and sends Isabel postcards from all over. Meanwhile, her parents are more interested in turning an old laundromat into a cupcake store, which sounds pretty cool, but not as good as traveling.When Isabel hears about a baking contest for kids
Delightful read. This is a great book to give to a young middle grade girl. The story is about a 12 year old girl, Isabel, who is helping her mother to open up a cupcake shop in a tiny town in Oregon. The language is simple and easy to read while the book manages to carry more complex themes about responsibility, trying new things, and being hopeful in the face of uncertainty. Plus it has cupcake recipes at the back!
It was so amazing it was fun and creative
This book spent months on my "currently reading" shelf because I was reading it during silent reading time with my 7th grade students...and one of them kept giving me "that look." (If you teach, you know the look...it's the one that says, "I sure wish you would hurry up with that book because because I want it NOW.") So I gave the book to the kid, figuring I'd finish when she was done. Only the book didn't come back to me when she finished. She gave it to her friend, and that friend passed it on
