Violet in bloom: a flower power book

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 8.05pt; mso-pagination: none; mso-layout-grid-align: none">Katie-Rose, Violet, Milla, and Yasaman&#8212;four girls with seemingly little in common but their flower names&#8212;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&#8212;soon dubbed &#8220;beans of grossness&#8221;&#8212;taste like candied beets. And that&#8217;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.</p> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 8.05pt; mso-pagination: none; mso-layout-grid-align: none">&#160;</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 8.05pt; mso-pagination: none; mso-layout-grid-align: none">Bestselling author Lauren Myracle brings her understanding of the weight of fifth-grade dramas to another hilarious and memorable book that preteens will love!</P>
