A busy balancing act for Emma

This graphic-novel adaptation brings Emma’s dilemma to the page in full-color panels: she wants to join her Cupcake Club friends as a junior bridesmaid, but the dress they choose is beyond what her family can comfortably afford. With her mother out of work, Emma takes on extra chores and jobs, adding babysitting and dog-walking to flute practice and club commitments. The wedding plans give the story a concrete focus, while Emma’s growing list of responsibilities connects it to questions of friendship, family finances, and how much a tween can manage at once.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Kids ages 9–12 interested in graphic novels about friendship and everyday family life.
  • Cupcake Diaries readers curious about the series in graphic-novel form.
  • Readers who enjoy stories about taking on responsibilities and balancing activities.

Book overview

The bestselling Cupcake Diaries series is now available in graphic novel format! In this adaptation of the third book, Emma's earning money left and right--but is she in over her head?

When Mia asks the Cupcake Club girls to be junior bridesmaids in her mother's wedding, everyone is super excited about the idea--especially when they find the perfect dress for the occasion! It's Emma's dream dress...except for the price tag. And with her mom recently out of work, there's not a lot of room at the Taylor house for extra expenses. Not wanting to disappoint her friends, Emma decides to take on a few more jobs and chores around the house to help cover the cost.

Between babysitting her bratty brother, a dog-walking business, flute practice, the Cupcake Club--and oh yeah, being a typical tween girl--Emma may have bitten off more than she can chew. Can she pull of the balancing act and go to Mia's mom's wedding in style?

Fun, bright, full-color graphic panels tell the story with the same humor and heart as the original novel.
