Pie in the Sky is like enjoying a decadent cake . . . heartwarming and rib-tickling. --Terri Libenson, bestselling author of Invisible Emmie

When Jingwen moves to a new country, he feels like he's landed on Mars. School is torture, making friends is impossible since he doesn't speak English, and he's often stuck looking after his (extremely irritating) little brother, Yanghao.

To distract himself from the loneliness, Jingwen daydreams about making all the cakes on the menu of Pie in the Sky, the bakery his father had planned to open before he unexpectedly passed away. The only problem is his mother has laid down one major rule: the brothers are not to use the oven while she's at work. As Jingwen and Yanghao bake elaborate cakes, they'll have to cook up elaborate excuses to keep the cake making a secret from Mama.

In her hilarious, moving middle-grade debut, Remy Lai delivers a scrumptious combination of vibrant graphic art and pitch-perfect writing that will appeal to fans of Shannon Hale and LeUyen Pham's Real Friends, Kelly Yang's Front Desk, and Jerry Craft's New Kid.

A Junior Library Guild selection

Seamlessly mixes together equal parts of humor, loss, identity, discovery, and love to create a delicious concoction of a story. . . illustrated beautifully with Lai's insightful drawings. --Veera Hiranandani, Newbery Honor-winning author of The Night Diary

* The humor is] akin to that of Jeff Kinney's popular "Wimpy Kid" series . . . the perfect mixture of funny and emotionally resonant. --School Library Journal, starred review

* "Perfect for fans of Gene Luen Yang and Victoria Jamieson." --Shelf Awareness, starred review

Miracle in a bottle!!
I NEVER give reviews but for this I had to!! I purchased this bottle and used a bit on my niece who is 3 years old because she also has sinus issues. It helped her immediately!! I threw it in my purse and never used it on myself and forgot about it. I have been having really bad Asthma flare ups for the past 2 months with tightness in my chest, severe bloating and phlegm for days! I was on albuterol, prescription cough medicine, Z pack and prednisone it helped a little but never got rid of it. My sinus and allergies were bad as well!! I was just suffering terribly!! A few days later after I used it on my neice my asthma worsened to the point I almost went in to ER because it was so bad. I remebered it so I pulled it out of my bag rubbed it on my back, chest, neck and my forehead. I cannot tell you enough the immediate relief I felt!! I was finally able to sleep well that night and today I did not have to use my asthma machine at all!! Idk what this lil bottle did but it worked like a lil miracle on me!! THANK YOU FOR THIS PRODUCT!! I have already ordered MORE!!

THIS STUFF WORKS
I’ve been bed ridden w some type of facial/sinus infection for months on and off, and when I tell you this was the ONLY thing that helped w my intense headache pain, IT REALLY WORKED ! Best thing I’ve ever used tbh, and I’m always trying natural things for pain relief. (I hate pills but sometimes nothing else works for my chronic migraines) but this stuff is amazing. and it smells so good ! I’d totally buy again, and I’ve always recommended it to two other ppl, and they loved how it worked as well !

Not a nasal spray put in temples
This is NOT a typical Nose Spray. I did a search for nose spray. I read the description. I read the reviews. It arrived quickly. I sprayed into my nose. For 10 minutes this stronger than vicks Nasal Spray burned my sinus, throat and eyes. But no congestion the rest of the day. Bought some for a friend. Good thing he read the box. PUT on temples.
