Author Panetta’s story is baked to perfection: a crush that turns to infatuation-and later love-in the confines of a professional kitchen bristling with hot stoves, stuffed shelves, and perfectly shaped spanakopita.” The superb writing matches the beautiful illustrations in an effortless way, sharing young love in its simplest form. The Los Angeles Review of Books writes, “This is the best kind of romantic tale: innocent and unfussy, yet overwhelming. Author Kevin Panetta and illustrator Savanna Ganucheau tell a captivating story of young blooming love over a summer baking sourdough rolls. In the end, Ari learns that perhaps his greatest passion has been in front of him the whole time, and he just needed a little push to see that. As the summer goes on, the two find themselves learning more and more about each other, the world, and themselves, all while baking bread, muffins, and more. Ari is struggling to figure out what he wants in life and what dream he truly wants to pursue now that high school is over. As an avid baker himself, Hector is filling up his time in East Beach by working at Ari’s family bakery.
