1 author picked Pie as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a timeless story of friendship and mystery, family legacies, and hidden talents. It’s one of our favorite read-aloud books (although my husband has to read the epilogue because I cry every time), or go for the audiobook to hear all of Alice’s little ditties performed by a beautiful voice.
My 12-year-old checks this out from the library again and again. Get ready to crave pie, find a catnapped pet, strike up an unlikely friendship, and let your individual talents shine.
