The Cupcake Club is one sweet story

What happens when a mom teams up with her 9-year-old daughter on a writing adventure? A new book series for kids, THE CUPCAKE CLUB is born. That's what!

The first book of the series, PEACE, LOVE AND CUPCAKES, takes on a hot topic these days--bullying. Kylie Carson, a fourth-grader, is your typical outsider and a victim of bullying. However, she comes up with the idea to form the cupcake club and in the process, discovers new friends and the strength within to stand up for herself.

What young readers will love about this book are the characters. Each one is dealing with their own struggles, which is why they take it upon themselves to join together and make cupcakes. I mean, honestly, cupcakes really do make everything better, don't they? Girls will enjoy all the baking tips, original cupcake recipes and not to mention, the sweet story.

FYI: The sequel, RECIPE FOR TROUBLE, will be coming out this November.
