Sophie's big dream is to become an actress. When Sophie gets her big
chance at a commercial audition, it could make her dreams come true, except the
commercial is for a company that could put her best friend Isabel's family
bakery out of business. When Sophie isn't completely honest about her
situation, she puts her friendship with Isabel in jeopardy. She has to learn
how to hold on to her friendships while pursuing her dreams.
The second in a series about the ups
and downs of junior high friendships is delightfully written by Schroeder. This
realistic fiction novel is easy to read, with fun characters and a charming
sense of humor. Each chapter is titled after a recipe, some of which are
included at the back of the novel.
