    "NO ONE BLENDS FUNNY WITH SWEET LIKE DAN ELISH!"

    - Billy Aronson, Emmy winning co-creator of PBS Kids' PEG + CAT

    For eleven years in a row, John Applefeller has entered his highly original apple desserts in The Worldwide Dessert Contest. And every year he's watched his delectable treats turn into disasters while the evil Sylvester Sweet wins first prize. But this year, when John's great creation, the world's largest apple pancake, flops, he and his sidekicks decide to seek help from the king of dessert chefs, the magical Captain B. Rollie Ragoon.

     

    Praise for THE WORLDWIDE DESSERT CONTEST:

    "The plot goes down as easily as ice cream and is topped with plenty of laughs, both subtle and broad. Certainly its silliness makes for a pithy read-aloud and a booktalker's dream. Call this delicious."

    - Booklist, starred review

    "Elish writes with a sure hand of this sugary world, his tongue squarely in the area of his sweet tooth. For his ability to praise desserts in an endlessly original fashion, he deserves a blue ribbon."

    - Publisher's Weekly
