Sami’s perfect life falls apart when the new girl moves in next door. Sami doesn’t need another friend, she has Stella. They are the perfect example of best friends. Mittens come in pairs and so do friends, according to Sami.
Bullying can be very subtle, but it hurts just the same. Three can be a tricky number with friends because most of the time, someone gets left out. Follow Sami as she discovers how to keep her best friend and find room for one more in Pink Tiara Cookies for Three.
Maria sent me her books to review for this giveaway and I have to say that they are darling! They both have such positive themes with fun characters and great illustrations. Here newest book is Pink Tiara Cookies for Three -- any little girl who gets this book with the tiara cookie cutter will be tickled silly. I {loved} this read, as I'm sure you and your little princess will as well.
Maria is also giving one of YOU the chance to win a copy of each book along with a tiara cookie cutter! If you don't have a child, these books would also make great gifts for any holiday! If you don't win -- pick up a copy of one or both of Maria's books {here}.
