Ansleys Big Bake Off
$8.99Add to cartFrom the family that brought you the Lena in the Spotlight series and the popular For Girls Like You magazine, comes the story of four young sisters who rebuild their lives and find joy in unexpected ways after their mother’s death.
Ansley and her family move to a new city to seek a fresh start after the death of their mother. But that also means … a new school, new friends–new everything! Fortunately, even though no one could ever take the place of their mom, Aunt Samantha has moved in to help Dad and the girls.
As they all settle into their “new normal”, Lena finds comfort in singing and songwriting. Ashton and Amber record videos documenting their lives and email them to their grandmothers. And Ansley pursues her own dream of becoming an Olympic gymnastics champ when she signs up with Grace and Power Gym. But she soon realizes that using her creativity to bake treats and share them with those she loves brings her as much (or even more) joy. Especially since it brings back memories of precious afternoons she spent in the kitchen with her mom.
So which dream should she follow? Ansley prays for guidance, and it seems her prayers are answered when she gets the opportunity to both perform as a gymnast and take part in a The Big Bake Off at the Roland Lake Founders Day Fair. The Grand Prize is a trophy and a spot on the local morning show, Awake with The Lake!
But her dreams of taking home the trophy and being on TV are threatened by her strongest competition: Taylor, a mean girl from her new school who not only teases Ansley and rejects her offers of friendship but comes from a family of professional bakers.
Still, with the loving and prayerful support of her own family behind her, Ansley knows she has a real shot at winning. But with Taylor in the mix, will Ansley be able to rise to the occasion? Or, will she just get burned?
