Finley Flowers series.
Illustrated by
Jessica Scheret.
Third grader Finley enters a cooking contest with best friend Henry; first prize is a year of free pizza--the perfect birthday gift for Henry. Through trial and (much) error, Finley learns that cooking requires skill as well as creativity, and that supporting a friend is more important than winning. A light, lively story with a satisfying conclusion and colorful spot art.
