Ellie's Magical Bakery: Perfect Pie for a Perfect Pet

Book 2 in a magical new series from Paralympian and star of the Great Comic Relief Bake-Off, Ellie Simmonds.

Ellie's Magical Bakery is a great success. Ellie and Victoria Sponge are having lots of fun baking cakes which Ellie sells in the shop and Basil delivers on his roller skates. Even Whisk is helping out, by decorating the boxes!

But when a local boy loses his new puppy, Ellie and Basil are desperate to find it for him. Ellie's magical book has a recipe to help them, but it is rather unusual. The recipe leads them to the butcher's, where they find the puppy has stolen some sausages, and to the village green where they find a stick . . . But how will the recipe help Ellie and her friends find the lost puppy?

Reviews

Light-hearted, an easy and very enjoyable read. It's hard to avoid mention of the GBBO when reviewing a book about baking and this will be perfect for any young fan of the series

—— Parents in Touch

A lovely story for young girls just starting to read on their own . . . perfect for any young fan of the series [Great British Bake-Off].

—— Parents in Touch

Engagingly vivid, exciting and witty

—— The Telegraph

Working in the grand tradition of children’s fantasy, Wexler’s off to a promising start

—— Kirkus Reviews

A charming, adventuresome fantasy from a promising new author

—— Booklist

Will gratify book lovers and fantasy experts alike

—— The Horn Book

A refreshing and unique tale – one that rises above the clichés it could so easily have fallen into – that entertains on every level. It’s pitched perfectly to its audience (as well as those who are a few years older...) and, while only time will tell if it becomes a classic, it treats the familiar tropes with care and respect, leaving the reader wanting more after the final page has been turned.

—— Starburst

This is a brilliant story, and Django Wexler is a name to remember - as if you could forget it!

—— Books Monthly, Children's Book of the Month

Rich and dense and creative
