Bookroo's summary

Anna's excitement for the town bake sale turns bittersweet when her best friends, Isabel and Sadie, start bonding with new girl Monica. Determined to prove their trio is unbreakable, Anna plans to win the bake sale. But when Monica joins their baking day, tensions rise. Can Anna reclaim her friends' attention, or will she discover that friendship, like cookies, is better when shared? Dive into this delightful tale of jealousy, baking, and the true meaning of friendship.

From the publisher

Anna and Banana must cook up a solution when her jealousy gets her into some hot water in the sixth book of this “fast-paced, fun, and funny” (Megan McDonald, bestselling author of the Judy Moody series) illustrated chapter book series about the joys and challenges of elementary school friendships.

After watching the contestants on The Batter-Up Bake-Off Show whip up sweet treats, Anna, Isabel, Sadie, and Banana are ready to put their culinary chops to the test. The plan? To make the best-ever cookie recipe for the town library’s bake sale!

There’s only one problem: Isabel and Sadie have started hanging out with a girl named Monica, and suddenly she’s all they can talk about. Anna’s sure she, Sadie, and Isabel are complete as a trio, and winning the bake sale will prove it. But when Monica shows up with Sadie and Isabel for their big baking day things quickly turn from sweet to sour.

Can Anna win back the attention of her two besties, or will she learn that friendship—like cookies—is best when shared?
