Cady thinks part of the reason Aunt Chelle's shop isn't doing all that well has to do with their limited offerings so she's determined to find some unique flavors and convince Aunt Chelle to sell them. Cady sets to work and while she's practicing and learning, she experiments with different flavors.

She tells Cady that she must bake 1,000 pies. But, first Aunt Chelle insists that Cady must learn how to make the perfect pie and the best way to do that is with practice.

She lives in a small, tourist town with several pie shops and she only sells two flavors. Chelle owns a pie ship that isn't doing well. Cady's father has been arrested and she has to stay with her Aunt Chelle while he's in jail.

Summer of a Thousand Pies by Margaret Dilloway is the story of 12-year-old Cady. Both are children's books and I presume they're for around the same age range but No Flying in the House may skew a bit younger. Since I screwed up and made my On Democracy post so lengthy, I'm going to double up and keep these two reviews short.
