Klappentext "When twelve-year-old GiGi and her big sister DiDi move to Long Island from South Carolina for GiGi to attend a fancy new private school, GiGi has a new recipe for success and makes new friends, but then discovers a family secret that turns her life upside-down"-- Zusammenfassung In this quirky, heartwarming coming-of-age novel, two sisters have their lives changed after winning a national cooking contest that takes them to a new town filled with new adventures—and challenges. Take two sisters making it on their own: brainy twelve-year-old GiGi and junior-high-dropout-turned-hairstylist DiDi. Add a million dollars in prize money from a national cooking contest and a move from the trailer parks of South Carolina to the North Shore of Long Island. Mix in a fancy new school, a first crush, new friends and enemies, and a generous sprinkling of family secrets. That's the recipe for The Truth About Twinkie Pie , a voice-driven middle-grade debut about the true meaning of family and friendship.
