Kelly Quinn and her friends must figure out a way to save a beloved local store and find their infamous Secret Recipe Book , which has gone missing in this sequel to Just Add Magic (the inspiration for the family-friendly TV series)! Kelly Quinn and her best friends, Darbie and Hannah, are having the worst day ever! Their Secret Recipe Book accidentally gets included in frenemy, Charlotte’s used book drive. Not good. As if that’s not enough, the girls find out that their cooking program is on the chopping block at school, thanks to big budget cuts. Kelly & Company decide to take matters into their own hands and apply for famous TV chef Felice Foudini’s Recipe Challenge. The prize? $10,000 and webisodes on Felice’s site. With the Book and the special ingredients from their beloved mentor, Senora Perez’s, store LaCucina, the girls are sure to win. But when they turn to Senora Perez, for help, they discover La Cucina is in danger of closing! Then Kelly gets a mysterious delivery—a package with the missing Secret Recipe Book with a note: “From KE.” KE is one of the Book’s authors, but who is KE exactly? It’s up to Kelly, Darbie, and Hannah to get to the bottom of the mystery, save the cooking program, and help Senora P. keep her store!

What can I say? This is a delightful book that we received in perfect condition and shipped fast. Cute story, too!
Lovely Child Book.
Secondo volume scritto dall'autrice per ragazzi Cindy Callaghan della serie "Just Add Magic", arriva dopo qualche anno rispetto al primo volume e risente dell' "influenza" della serie tv tratta appunto dal volume 1. Avendo già divorato gli episodi in televisione, mi è parso un po' ripetitivo nei contenuti. Rimane comunque una storia piacevole e divertente e i personaggi creati dalla Callaghan si confermano spassosi e genuini. Disponibile, così come per il Volume 1, solo in lingua inglese.
My daughter has watched the tv show already so this added so much colour and different perspective to it all. We had good conversations after she read it about why and how things might need to be changed to make something fit into tv format.
