The Adventures of Dough Girl

A mild-mannered baker, a Master Chef, turns into “Dough Girl,” a superhero. That’s the premise behind this whimsical little children’s book written by ten-year-old Hope Edwards. In the story, Dough Girl flies off to the local school to help a little girl named Meghan who has been confronted by Pat, the Evil Cook. Meghan is being forced to eat unpalatable muffins that have been baked in a Food Factory from “processed dough.”

This is a gently exciting adventure for young children. At the same time it is, for their parents, partly a parody of adventure comics, partly a call to be more careful about what we feed our children, without being heavy-handed in its message.
