Clara Lee and the Apple Pie Dream

Big things are happening in third grade for this Korean-American girl! From the New York Times–bestselling author of To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before.

Meet Clara Lee.

Likes: her best friends, her grandpa, her little sister (when she’s not being annoying, which is almost always), candy necklaces, and the Apple Blossom Festival.

Dislikes: her little sister (when she’s being annoying, which is almost always), her mom’s yucky fish soup, and bad dreams (even though Grandpa says they mean good luck).

After a bad dream, Clara Lee has a whole day of good luck. But when her luck changes, she upsets her friends and family. Will Clara Lee have good luck again in time to try out for the Little Miss Apple Pie pageant?

Clara Lee is a delightful character from acclaimed author Jenny Han. This charming, humorous chapter book is perfect for fans of Clementine and Judy Moody!

“Han . . . captures an 8-year-old’s perspective perfectly . . . The message shines through but doesn’t overwhelm this engaging chapter book that will be welcomed by middle-grade fans of Clementine.” ?Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“Readers will delight in this American-as-apple-pie third grader as she follows her BIG DREAM in a string of heartfelt adventures as perfect as an unbroken candy necklace.” ?Megan McDonald, New York Times–bestselling author of the Judy Moody series

“I really loved Clara Lee. This is a compact little book with a big heart.” ?Linda Sue Park, Newbery Medalist and New York Times–bestselling author of A Long Walk to Water
