About The Book

The bestselling Cupcake Diaries series is now available in graphic novel format! In this adaptation of the third book, Emma’s earning money left and right—but is she in over her head?

When Mia asks the Cupcake Club girls to be junior bridesmaids in her mother’s wedding, everyone is super excited about the idea—especially when they find the perfect dress for the occasion! It’s Emma’s dream dress…except for the price tag. And with her mom recently out of work, there’s not a lot of room at the Taylor house for extra expenses. Not wanting to disappoint her friends, Emma decides to take on a few more jobs and chores around the house to help cover the cost.

Between babysitting her bratty brother, a dog-walking business, flute practice, the Cupcake Club—and oh yeah, being a typical tween girl—Emma may have bitten off more than she can chew. Can she pull of the balancing act and go to Mia’s mom’s wedding in style?

Fun, bright, full-color graphic panels tell the story with the same humor and heart as the original novel.

About The Author

Coco Simon

From cupcakes to ice cream and donuts!

She is the author of the Cupcake Diaries, the Sprinkle Sundays, and the Donut Dreams series. Her newest series is Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch.
