Why read it?
1 author picked Bliss as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Bliss is a delightful story about a young girl named Rose, and her siblings, who are supposed to protect the bakery while their parents are away, especially the top secret family recipe book. ‘Supposed to’ are the important words here. But what happens isn’t really their fault. Who could resist the sweet-talking Aunt Lily who shows up out of nowhere on her fancy pants motorcycle? The Bliss kiddos are no match for Aunt Lily’s fantastical baking skills.
Or are they?
Rose is the perfect narrator to take you through this adorable tale of baking, magic, and family.
From Cori's list on baking magic.
