Author Notes

From cupcakes to ice cream and donuts! When she's not daydreaming about yummy snacks, Coco Simon edits children's books and has written close to one hundred books for children, tweens, and young adults, which is a lot less than the number of cupcakes, ice cream cones, and donuts she's eaten. She is the author of the Cupcake Diaries, the Sprinkle Sundays, and the Donut Dreams series. Her newest series is Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch.

Booklist Review

In the Cupcake Diaries series, one of the four members of the Cupcake Club narrates each book. Here Alexis, the club's business manager and a bit of a math whiz, turns her first crush into a mathematically quantifiable experiment complete with a hypothesis, a goal, and data recorded in a notebook. Meanwhile, her older sister's upcoming sixteenth birthday party sends the club into action, working on their most important order yet. The narrative records the pangs and insecurities of a girl's first crush with precision, though Alexis comes out of the experience with unusual equanimity. An appealing addition.--Phelan, Carolyn Copyright 2010 Booklist
