The bestselling Cupcake Diaries series is now available in graphic novel format! Katie is miserable when her best friend is invited to join the Popular Girls Club and Katie is left out. Is there an Unpopular Girls Club she can join? Luckily, Katie finds her way with a great new group of friends-Mia, Emma, and Alexis-and together they become the Cupcake Club. Sometimes starting from scratch turns out to be the icing on the cupcake. Fun, bright, full-color graphic panels tell the story with the same humor and heart as the original novel. Available in softcover and hardcover editions.

When Mia arrives at her new school, her goal is to be open to and friendly with everyone, but everyone at Park Street School fits into a clique. When the Popular Girls Club takes an interest in Mia's awesome fashion style and wants to recruit her, Mia must decide between them and her great new Cupcake Club friends. It's like choosing between her divorced mom and dad and her old house and new house. Is it always going to be Mia in the middle, or can she mix it up?

When Mia asks the Cupcake Club girls to be junior bridesmaids in her mother's wedding, everyone is super excited about the idea-especially when they find the perfect dress for the occasion! It's Emma's dream dress... except for the price tag. And with her mom recently out of work, there's not a lot of room at the Taylor house for extra expenses. Not wanting to disappoint her friends, Emma decides to take on a few more jobs and chores around the house to help cover the cost. Between babysitting her bratty brother, a dog-walking business, flute practice, the Cupcake Club-and oh yeah, being a typical tween girl-Emma may have bitten off more than she can chew. Can she pull of the balancing act and go to Mia's mom's wedding in style?

Alexis Becker is by far the most prepared, exact, and organized Cupcake Club member, which is why she's in charge of the business end of the club. But when she suddenly develops a major crush on Matt Taylor-her BFF Emma's brother-things get a little disorganized. Alexis decides to figure her way around this strange new feeling the way she figures out everything else: by conducting research, collecting data, and setting a goal. Is there a perfect recipe for love? Alexis is ready to find out! Fun, bright, full-color graphic panels tell the story with the same humor and heart as the original novel.

Katie's Cupcake Club friends all have other activities besides making cupcakes. So Katie sets out to find her extracurricular niche. When Katie makes the softball team, it's batter up... but is this the kind of batter Katie really wants to be dealing with? What if she makes a mistake and her team loses? By stepping up to the plate, Katie realizes that doing what you love always makes the batter sweeter.

Mia loves all her friends in the Cupcake Club, and things are good at home with her new stepdad and stepbrother and going to her dad's house on the weekends. School is okay too with one exception: Mia is failing Spanish! She can speak it at home with her family, but writing is a different story. And when it's parent-teacher night, Mia has a new dilemma: Who goes to that? Mom and Eddie? Mom and Dad? All of them? Mia soon realizes that sometimes having an extra (or a "baker's dozen") of something can be a very good thing.

Emma is not thrilled with always having to rearrange her schedule so she can babysit her younger brother, Jake. Now, Emma's parents have broken some news that threatens to push Emma over the edge-since Emma and Jake are going to the same day camp this summer, she's expected to sit with Jake on the bus. Not only does this mean Emma can't hang out with her friends, but she also has to comfort Jake… who gets carsick! Can Emma find a way to sweeten up her summer plans?

Alexis loves being the business manager of the cupcake club. She's super-organized and loves working out schedules and budgets. But is being in charge 'not cool?' Feeling unappreciated, Alexis takes a break from her responsibilities. With missed deadlines and supplies running low, it's a recipe for disaster!
