Ren's One-of-a-Kind Cupcakes

Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch #3

by Coco Simon, Manuela López (illustrator)

Ren Lu shows off her creative flair in this third book in the Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch chapter book series, the little sister series to the bestselling Cupcake Diaries. Includes black and white illustrations throughout and eye-catching glitter on the cover!

From the stylish blue streak in her hair to the fun decorations she designs for the Mini Cupcake Club, Ren Lu is always looking for ways let her creative side shine bright! When Fenton Street School announces their Kindness Week, Ren has the idea to make mini cupcakes for everyone in her grade. After all, what’s kinder than a cupcake?

But when someone else tries to sprinkle in their own ideas, it makes Ren feel a little sour. This is her idea, and she has it all under control…until she doesn’t. Can Ren learn how to accept some help before her plan falls flat?

About the author

Coco Simon always dreamed of opening a cupcake bakery, but she’s afraid she would eat all the profits. When she’s not daydreaming about cupcakes, Coco edits children’s books and has written close to 100 books for children, tweens, and young adults, which is a lot less than the number of cupcakes she’s eaten. Cupcake Diaries is the first time Coco has mixed her love of cupcakes with writing.

I love this book because it is very cute. It taught me that you should never have a fight with your friends If you do just fix it at the end.
