Description
Celebrating Mexican-American culture, Love, Sugar, Magic: A Dash of Trouble is the first book in a series of three that tells the story of Leo, an eleven-year-old who stumbles upon an exciting family secret – her mother and sisters are witches who bake magic into sweets! Longing to be treated as a grown-up, Leo snoops around, casts accidental spells from stolen spellbooks, and ultimately learns how to control her newfound powers. Strong sisterhood, good intentions ending badly, and awkward adolescents feeling left out are themes that will resonate with younger readers, while the cozy tale of love, joy, and humor will satisfy everyone else looking for a little extra sweetness in their lives. PS: bonus recipes at the back!
