    language (Pemberley Publishing, April 1, 2014)
    Harriet Honeyman – indulged, unpopular, ostracized and brand 'new girl' at school. This story is SO predictable. Or is it? Harriet’s not just your average spoiled little rich girl. She’s one of life’s true “foodies” so when she discovers Sophie’s family tragedy this resourceful 12 year old uses her love of gourmet food to turn her home into a fancy restaurant and hotel to rescue Sophie’s mum. Simple right? Wrong – it will take a miracle to pull it off; especially as the vindictive, Lulu is hell-bent on destroying her plans. This story has all the ingredients to satisfy the most demanding appetite - a mystery, an adventure, a coming of age story, a war of words, a tale of friends won and lost, and even a dash of romance. Bon appetite! The PUBLISHER says:The heroine in this book doesn't wear a cape, carry any weapons or come armed with super powers. She just has heart, smarts and tenacity. You won't find a more resourceful or inspiring character in another book you read this year. REVIEWS OF PRINT BOOK say:"My daughter loved this story. She even wanted to go as Harriet to her book day but I had to explain that no-one would know who she was because the book is so new." Elena Mum of nine year old Ivy"This is such a charming book, so engaging and thoroughly entertaining, I enjoyed it as much as my daughter " Vanessa Mum of eleven year old Katy"This is the best book I have read in ages.
