| book description |
In this sequel to The Secret Destiny of Pixie Piper, Pixie Piper--who is a direct descendent of Mother Goose--and her adorable gosling, Destiny, head to Chuckling Goose Farm, where she bakes magical wishing cakes, makes new friends, and defends the farm from the evil Sinister Sisters. ""A fresh new addition to middle grade stories of magic and friendship; recommended for fans of . . . Chris Colfer's The Land of Stories.""--School Library Journal Pixie Piper and her best friend, Gray, are off to Chuckling Goose Farm, where descendants of Mother Goose spend the summer learning to master their magic. With her new friends, Rain and Pip, she makes up baking rhymes, plays with her goose, Destiny, and learns how to bake magic wishing cakes. The farm seems safe, but when Pixie finds a shard of glass that belongs to Raveneece, her old enemy, she begins to worry that the worrisome Sinister Sister isn't as banished as she'd hoped. With multigenerational characters, an emphasis on family, a powerful portrayal of grade-school friendships, and lots of poetry, this is a truly original fairy-tale retelling. ALA Booklist said, ""Pixie's an engaging protagonist, who faces both fantastical challenges along with familiar issues . . . this will draw fans of classic tales with a twist."" Features black-and-white chapter openers and a recipe.
