Claudia and the Recipe for Danger

Entering the local baking contest, Claudia is disheartened when her cake turns out poorly, until she realizes that her efforts have been sabotaged, and it's up to the baby-sitters to find out who is to blame. Ann M. Martin is the creator of The Baby-sitters Club, which has more than 190 million books in print, making it one of the most popular series in the history of publishing. Her novels include A Corner of the Universe (a Newbery Honor Book), Belle Teal, Here Today, A Dog's Life, On Christmas Eve, and the Main Street and Family Tree series, as well as the much-loved collaborations P.S. Longer Letter Later and Snail Mail No More, with Paula Danziger. Ann lives in upstate New York.
