About The Book

With eye-catching glitter on the cover!

Alana shows what she’s learned about kindness in this eighth book in the Cupcake Diaries: The New Batch chapter book series, the little sister series to the bestselling Cupcake Diaries. Includes black and white illustrations throughout!

When a new after school program starts taking up all of Alana’s cupcake baking time, her Mini Cupcake Club friends feel neglected and worry she’s repeating old mistakes. Alana doesn’t want her friends to feel that way, but she knows she has learned from the past. Now it’s time for her to teach her friends to learn from their pasts and remind the Mini Cupcake Club that the most important ingredient in any recipe is kindness.
