Her journey starts with a cake disaster which, to her delight, she watches in fascination being turned into a triumph. She decides then that she wants to learn to cook.

Along the way Lilly, as she makes cookies for an uncle in the military, and helps her sister with a homework project, discovers that cooking can be fun, creative, thought provoking, and very rewarding, especially when it provides a way to help people, make new friends, or strengthen relationships.

All the books in the series contain recipes that are easy to make, require minimal kitchen skills, are child friendly and adult pleasing. This book is unique because it contains a craft activity as well as a no-cook cake recipe.
