A Passport to Pastries!

In this gently humorous chapter book, Phoebe embarks on a trip to Paris with her best friend Camille and their families. While excited to see the sights and discover new foods, Phoebe finds herself hesitant to try local delicacies like snails, unlike her adventurous friend. This leads Phoebe to question her own bravery and whether differing tastes can impact a strong friendship. The story thoughtfully explores themes of self-discovery, embracing new experiences, and accepting differences in others, all set against the charming backdrop of Paris. It's ideal for early elementary readers aged 6-9.

"Gently humorous black-and-white illustrations pair nicely with the text. With all the foodies out there, this delightful series deserves a long shelf life…and many more courses."--Kirkus Reviews "Fans of Junie B. Jones and Judy Moody . . . will enjoy this."--School Library Journal "Age-appropriate humor via an outspoken, lovable, take-charge narrator. Dreidemy’s wiggly spot illustrations, meanwhile, supply plenty of nervous energy."--Booklist Phoebe and her family are going to Paris with Camille’s family, and Phoebe can’t wait to see the sights and discover new foods! But when she arrives, things aren’t quite as she expected. When she can’t muster up the courage to try eating snails even though Camille loves them, Phoebe starts to wonder if she really is as adventurous as she thought. But more importantly, can she and Camille still be friends even if they don’t like the same things?
