Ren's One-of-a-Kind Cupcakes

Illustrated by Manuela Lopez

About The Book

Ren Lu shows off her creative flair in this third book in the Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch chapter book series, the little sister series to the bestselling Cupcake Diaries. Includes black and white illustrations throughout!

From the stylish blue streak in her hair to the fun decorations she designs for the Mini Cupcake Club, Ren Lu is always looking for ways let her creative side shine bright! When Fenton Street School announces their Kindness Week, Ren has the idea to make mini cupcakes for everyone in her grade. After all, what’s kinder than a cupcake?

But when someone else tries to sprinkle in their own ideas, it makes Ren feel a little sour. This is her idea, and she has it all under control…until she doesn’t. Can Ren learn how to accept some help before her plan falls flat?

About The Author

From cupcakes to ice cream and donuts! When she’s not daydreaming about yummy snacks, Coco Simon edits children’s books and has written close to one hundred books for children, tweens, and young adults, which is a lot less than the number of cupcakes, ice cream cones, and donuts she’s eaten. She is the author of the Cupcake Diaries, the Sprinkle Sundays, and the Donut Dreams series. Her newest series is Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch.

About The Illustrator

Manuela López is an artist, introvert, and tea drinker. She works as an illustrator of children’s books and freelance projects.
