| Grasshopper Pie is a humorous picture book by Rebecca and Angela Talley about imagination and the dangers of taking ideas too literally. A mother dreams up and talks about unique dishes such as "grasshopper pie" to her children, yet her young boy and girl decide to surprise her with a "pie" that has not-so-imaginary ingredients! A funny story, nicely illustrated with simple yet charming color drawings, Grasshopper Pie is a welcome addition to school and community library and especially recommended for young readers ages 4 to 6.

| This story sets my 6 year old into fits of giggles every time we read it together. Fun story, cute illustrations! Christine C. Bogart |
This is a terrific book for young readers. The story is straight out of real life-- something most of them could identify with. The illustrations do an excellent job of portraying the action visually. Plus, there's nothing scary or moralizing-- it's just good clean fun. I highly recommend the book. Jim Griffin |
“She’d wanted her father to pay more
attention to her, and she’d wanted her
family to be like it used to be. She hadn’t
wanted everything to change so drastically
that she may not even survive it.”
As Liza excels physically, everyone—from
college basketball recruiters to the gorgeous
Kyle Reynolds—seems to take note of her.
Everyone, that is, except her own father. While
her father is busy at his law practice, Liza learns
about a strange new religion from Kyle. Could
Kyle’s religion help her family? Or is it already
too late for her father to make amends?
When yet another broken promise finally leads
to tragedy, Liza doesn’t know if she will ever be
able to forgive her father. It will take a good
friend, a new belief, and a miracle straight from
heaven to help Liza see that she still has a
choice. The compelling story of a high school
basketball star, this is a novel every girl will
want, and none will be able to put down!
