Recipe for Trouble: The Cupcake Club
When the Peace, Love, and Cupcakes club reconvenes at the start of fifth grade, some of the peace is missing. Jealous of her BFFs’ amazing summer adventures, Lexi narrates this second installment in the Cupcake Club series. As the club tackles more unique cupcake orders, she learns to be more self-confident and stick up for her ideas in the budding business—and when it’s better to compromise. The class rendition of Romeo and Juliet also stirs up Lexi’s feelings for Jeremy. But why he won’t eat cupcakes is a mystery to be solved. More concluding recipes are the icing on this cupcake.
