(4) YA To Penny, there's nothing great about Hog's Hollow, where her mom decided to move and open a bakery. Penny misses city life, struggles with her parents' separation, and is tormented by mean girls. Eventually--and predictably--she makes some friends (one a cute guy), and learns to appreciate small-town life. Though the story lacks originality, descriptions of Penny's cupcake creations are a treat.
