About The Truth About Twinkie Pie
Product Description There's something about asking for Impossible Things. For one little second, they feel Possible. Take two sisters making it on their own: brainy twelve-year-old GiGi and junior-high-dropout-turned-hairstylist DiDi. Add a million dollars in prize money from a national cooking contest and a move from the trailer parks of South Carolina to the North Shore of Long Island. Mix in a fancy new school, new friends and enemies, a first crush, and a generous sprinkling of family secrets. That's the recipe for The Truth About Twinkie Pie, a voice-driven middle-grade debut about the true meaning of family and friendship. Review *"Yeh's characters are full of heart and she perfectly captures the middle school parent-child dynamic." ― Library Media Connection (starred review) "The bouncy voice of protagonist Gigi--aka Galileo Galilei, aka Leia--makes her tale of a move, friendship, crushes, and a mystery about her identity a very easy one to get caught up in." ― Booklist "Filled with enough characters and plot for two novels, Yeh's nimbly voiced, combination fish-out-of-water, personal transformation and emotional family tale is also stuffed with charm." ― Kirkus Reviews "This story will tug at your heart strings and make you hungry at the same time." ― VOYA "Endearing characters will keep readers engaged throughout as more than one character learns the true meaning of family and friendship." ― School Library Journal About the Author Kat Yeh is the author of the critically acclaimed middle grade novels The Truth About Twinkie Pie and The Way to Bea.
