The Summer Before the Whole Sixth Grade

Brianna Justice won the fifth-grade presidency, but can she win her summer camp’s high-stakes baking contest? Fans of Kelly Yang’s Front Desk series will enjoy this sweet story.

After a long year running for fifth grade presidency—and winning—Brianna Justice is ready for a summer of maximum chillin’. But in a super-duper, totally unexpected surprise, she is whisked away to a prestigious four-week baking camp. There, student bakers will compete in teams to make the best confections, all leading up to a grand finale held at a world-famous hotel. On an island! Even better, the winner takes home a giant, humungous cash prize and the chance to be on TV! 

In fifth grade Brianna was focused on becoming class president. But the summer before sixth grade is all about baking the best crumb, curd, and cake, leading the Key Lime Krew to victory, and snagging that grand prize! 

This hilarious, heartfelt story shows readers that the recipe for achieving big dreams includes a pinch of passion, a dash of determination, and a whole scoop of courage.
