Description
A sweet and delicious story about moving, illustrated by award-winning artist Kady MacDonald Denton.
Posy, Megan and Mae have always been the best of friends — but now Posy has to move away. Only their favourite activity can comfort the girls: baking pie! And when they realize they can host a good-pie party instead of a good-bye party, the sad situation becomes a sweet gathering for their entire community.
The Good-Pie Party celebrates good friends, good memories and the joy of a just-right goodbye.
