Good representation but doesn’t add many surprises to the always-growing world of kids’ graphic novels about friendship drama. Even so, this will still be much appreciated by kids who devour these stories, particularly if they like a sports twist.
Readers who like friendship stories, food novels, and new-kid books will want to pick this one up. Recommended for library collections where friendship stories are popular.
These new books will be welcomed by fans of the original “Cupcake Club” series as well as by any tweens looking for sweet, but realistic, stories about kids trying to form lasting friendships.
Asterin is a strong and realistically flawed heroine, and the other characters are satisfactorily fleshed out, but the book’s pacing is uneven. Recommended only for larger libraries where fantasy is popular.
