Aesop’s Fable, a fantastic bookstore in Holliston, MA chose MIDSUMMER’S MAYHEM as their Middle Grade Book Club selection for October 2019! And that’s why I got to spend an afternoon with an incredible group of young readers and bakers! The kids, who ranged in age from 7 to 13, brought in homemade treats inspired by this culinary riddle:
To add aroma, color, taste to food,
We travel far, and gladly pay the price.
We find blends custom-made for any mood,
Sprinkled or ground up, use lots of _____!
We had a great Q & A session about the book, followed by a taste testing, judging (which was very challenging!), and awards. Check out the gallery below to see the amazing creations made by this wonderful group of kids!
