| Zusammenfassung: | Knowing very little English, eleven-year-old Jingwen feels like an alien when his family immigrates to Australia, but copes with loneliness and the loss of his father by baking elaborate cakes When Jingwen moves to a new country, he feels like he's landed on Mars. School is torture, making friends is impossible since he doesn't speak English, and he's often stuck looking after his (extremely annoying) little brother, Yanghao. To distract himself from the loneliness, Jingwen daydreams about making all the cakes on the menu of Pie in the Sky, the bakery his father had planned to open before he unexpectedly passed away. The only problem is, his mother has laid down one major rule: she's at work. As Jingwen and Yanghao bake elaborate cakes, they'll have to serve elaborate excuses to Mama in order to keep the cake making a secret. In her moving, laugh-out-loud debut illustrated novel, Remy Lai brings to life the story of a young immigrant who feels lost but, through brotherhood, friendship, and lots of baking hijinks, finds his way home. -- |
