Juvenile Fiction. Juvenile Literature. Superfudge meets The Lemonade War in this funny, heartwarming series debut about change, adventure, family, and of course, doughnuts. Tristan isn't Gifted or Talented like his sister Jeanine, and he's always been okay with that because he can make a perfect chocolate chip cookie and he lives in the greatest city in the world. But his life takes a turn for the worse when his parents decide to move to middle-of-nowhere Petersville-a town with one street and no restaurants. It's like suddenly they're supposed to be this other family, one that can survive without bagels and movie theaters. His suspicions about his new town are confirmed when he's tricked into believing the local general store has life-changing chocolate cream doughnuts, when in fact the owner hasn't made them in years. And so begins the only thing that could make life in Petersville worth living: getting the recipe, making the doughnuts, and bringing them back to the town through his very own doughnut stand. But Tristan will soon discover that when starting a business, it helps to be both Gifted and Talented, and It's possible he's bitten off more than he can chew . . .… (más)

I love reading middle grade books at night: they are cute, don't have too many characters or plot lines, and they're not so juicy I stay up half the night. I absolutely adore the Vanderbeeker series by Karina Van Glaser and The Doughnut Fix was the first book on Book Riots if you liked... list so it had BIG shoes to fill in my Vanderbeeker heart. It did superbly, my entrepreneurship baker heart loved the whole doughnut stand proces. I can't wait to read the next one. ( )

Laugh-out-loud funny at times, great family relationships - parent/child, siblings - and an engaging plot. A great family read. ( )

I really enjoyed this book - its well written and an engaging story. I love that the main character Tristan chooses a baking project as his task to keep him occupied before he can start school in his families new town. I was delighted with the book & read it in a two sittings. ( )

Tristan is floored when his parents announce they are moving from their NYC life out to a rural area in a run down purple house. His parents decide they are going to wait until second semester to enroll them in school and instead want the kids to work on a project. Tris is disappointed in the small town at first and the lack of breakfast. His project soon becomes getting the chocolate cream doughnut recipe that once was a big deal in the town and starting his own business. There are a lot more steps in the process than he every thought possible! Charming story with a persistent, clever main character. ( )

Sometimes the right book comes along at just the right point in your life. A sort of book serendipity. Tristan is a 12yo who moves away from New York City to a rural town and a fixer-upper after his family decides to make some pretty drastic life changes. It is a complete adjustment for him and his siblings to go from urban to rural life.

The kids can't start school right away, so their parents suggest that they each begin a project of their choosing to occupy their time. Tristan's sister Jeanine begins a complicated mapping project, and his little sister Zoe has an imaginary friend to keep her busy. Tristan bikes into town on the first morning in search of a bakery and discovers that the sign advertising life-changing chocolate cream doughnuts is a lie. (you know- the cake is a lie) At first, it is just another disappointment in the series of events since moving out there, but Tristan makes the doughnuts his project, and it all works out in the end.
