It's Raining Cupcakes Summary:
Twelve-year-old Isabel is dying to get out of Oregon. She spends her free time in the library, reading and dreaming about faraway places. When her mom decides to open a cupcake shop in their little town of Willow, Isabel feels just like buttercream frosting to a cupcake - stuck. It seems as if it will be another disappointing summer, until Isabel learns of a baking contest. If she can come up with a winning recipe, she might have a chance of competing in the bake-off in New York City! But Isabel's best friend, Sophie, is also entering the contest, and things always seem to go Sophie's way. To make matters worse, Isabel and her mom don't exactly see eye-to-eye on the type of recipe Isabel should enter. In this sweet treat by popular teen author Lisa Schroeder, Isabel discovers that maybe it's not about where you go in life as much as it is about enjoying the view from wherever you are.

First of all--New Follower! *Waves*

Second--thank you for the contest. Lisa is a dear--and I'm lucky enough to be in regular contact with her online. But alas, I live in So Cal and have yet to get any books signed by her. So thanks for a possible chance. I love this book! :)

Tea - Thank you for your entries and for helping spread the word about the contest! I double-checked your entry on the form & noticed that you hadn't given yourself credit for some of your extra entries, so I adjusted it to reflect all nine entries. :)
