Synopsis

Recommended for ages 6+

Say hello to Sadie… a superstar baker with a big heart!

In this book, Sadie needs to:

– keep a match day promise for her soccer team.

– create a science experiment that’s also yummy!

– invent a surprise dessert for her family BBQ.

But Sadie’s sweet intentions do not always go to plan! She doesn’t have enough match day treats for everyone. Her science project is a fizzy failure. And the surprise ingredient for her BBQ dessert goes missing!

Can Sadie find a way to save the day? In these three sprinkle-filled stories (complete with recipes!) the unstoppable Sadie shows that any problem can be solved with generosity, kindness and, of course, a spoonful of something delicious.

About the author

Joanie Stone

Joanie Stone was born and raised in Virginia, where she still lives today with her husband and young daughter. She spends her days painting in her light-filled studio in the country, surrounded by nature. She uses her background in traditional hand-drawn animation to bring life and movement to her characters and fills her images with textures reminiscent of children’s books from the past. She hopes her images will inspire kids to pick up a pencil and create their own worlds through stories and art.
