AS EASY AS PIE


Well, maybe not. In Sarah Weeks's new book PIE, a world-famous pie crust recipe may be lost. When Alice's Aunt Polly, the Pie Queen of Ipswitch, dies, she leaves the her recipe to her cat Lardo who is placed in Alice's care. Everyone in town is trying to figure out the recipe and take over the Pie Queen title. It may be up to Alice and her friend Charlie to piece together and discover what Aunt Polly really meant by her strange will. What I really enjoyed about this book is that each chapter starts with a real pie recipe, the favorite of that chapter's featured character. Yummmmm!
