" - School Library Journal "A heroine with baking in her blood and a zany plot liberally sprinkled with humor blend into fun family adventure. Lighthearted bliss." - Kirkus Reviews "This sweet (but never syrupy) story has surprising substance and broad appeal. A humorous tone ("Two things were clear to Rose: 1. Lindsey Borzini wanted her brother's autograph; and 2. Lindsey Borzini was under the influence of magical baked goods"), clear, thoughtful writing (Rose's feelings of inadequacy are spot-on for her age), and a brisk pace will also ensure that this one is gobbled up quickly." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "This sweet (but never syrupy) story has surprising substance and broad appeal. A humorous tone, clear, thoughtful writing, and a brisk pace will also ensure that this one is gobbled up quickly." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Delicious and exciting." - Washington Post "Middle-grade readers who enjoy slapstick humor and fantastical adventures will get a generous helping of each here in what amounts to an impressive debut." - Boston Globe "The children's attempts at magic and the subsequent flubs simply make this cannot-put-it-down delectable." - Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA)
