Violet in Bloom

Return to the bestselling Flower Power series with Violet in Bloom, the sequel to Luv Ya Bunches! Join the Flower Power girls on their journey of self-discovery, laughter, and love. Perfect for middle-grade readers, this series is a celebration of friendship, diversity, and the power of being yourself.  Katie-Rose, Violet, Milla, and Yasaman—four girls with seemingly little in common but their flower names—are nurturing their new friendship and are busy building luvyabunches.com, their very own social-networking site. Their first flower-power task? A doomed campaign to get their school to serve healthier snacks. The Jelly-Yums they champion—soon dubbed "beans of grossness"—taste like candied beets. And that's just the start of their troubles. A scheming classmate tries to drive a wedge between Katie-Rose and Yasaman, Violet may have been slammed in a secret journal, and poor Milla unintentionally commits hamstercide. It will take all the strength and genuine affection of these pals to weather a particularly stormy week of fifth grade.   Bestselling author Lauren Myracle brings her understanding of the weight of fifth-grade dramas to another hilarious and memorable book that preteens will love!
