Books with author Randi Marie Gause

Lindsey's big sister, Lacey, enters a cupcake competition with the entire sixth grade class. She thinks "this is going to be a piece of cake," until the boys in the class come up with better cupcake designs than the girls! Lacey and Jamie struggle to find a unique cupcake idea for themselves, but Lacey finally gives up. Mom comes to the rescue and teaches Lacey the secret to getting new ideas. Does it work? Will the boys be better bakers than the girls?

Lindsey's second grade homework assignment is the best she's ever had! The whole class gets to imagine they have any kind of pet they want, and write a story about it. The catch is, the pet must come to life and have a job. Each student must explain what the job is, what they do, and where the job is located. They write a story using their imagination in ways they never have before. Every student amazes themselves with what they've created. This is a "must read" for any child that loves to make-believe, or for encouraging the development of their imagination. A dinosaur as a pet? Why not?
