Bo and the Baking Disaster

I honestly wanted to read this after I read the summary because I thought I would be the person to ruin a dessert, and I wanted to see how Bo solved the problem. This is a great lesson on being patient and forgiving and working with family to find solutions. It's also fun because Bo is excited about celebrating Juneteenth and it made me want to read more books about him.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

Cute illustrations accompany this story about a boy who learns about Juneteenth and the significance of the color red to the holiday. Buzz also gains confidence as a budding chef!

I read this with my 10 year old daughter. She loved it, when she saw there were more books in the series at the end of the book she was excited and wants to read more about Bo. She is very interested in history and I like how there is history and meaning to the story. The illustrations are done really well.

What a fantastic story! Bo and the Baking Disaster is centered on community, finding solutions to small mistakes, and the celebration of Juneteenth. Bo’s enthusiasm for baking with his Pop-Pop takes a turn when things don't go as planned, but his determination to make things right is inspiring. The beautiful illustrations bring Bo’s world to life with vibrant, colorful details that perfectly complement the heartwarming story. Also, I especially love the explanation of the importance of the color red in Juneteenth celebrations. This book is a perfect introduction to Juneteenth and its significance, while also reminding young readers that mistakes can lead to new and creative ideas. A fantastic read for families and classrooms alike!
