As we approached the end of the story, we couldn’t wait to learn about how their lives turn out in the next book “The Doughnut King”. Very quickly Tris, Jeanine, & Zoe became part of our everyday lives as if they would walk through our classroom door at any moment! The story was fast paced and full of hilarious adventures. I rarely read a book to my class that I haven’t read first but I took the chance. I quickly snatched it up to read it aloud to my fifth graders. The school librarian bought “The Doughnut Fix” for our library in April. But even with the whole town training and supporting him, Tris isn’t sure he can live with what it takes to takes to win. If Tris can win “Can You Cut It,” the cutthroat competitive kids’ cooking show, he can get the cash to buy the machine. There’s only one solution: The Belshaw Donut Robot. Petersville needs to become a tourist destination, and his shop could be a big part of it, if Tris can keep up with demand. Folks keep moving away and if they can’t get people to stay, Petersville may disappear. And that’s not the worst part, Petersville has its own supply problem, it doesn’t have enough people. His doughnut business has a major supply issue. But just when things are looking up, problems start rolling in. Tris Levin thought moving from New York City to middle-of-nowhere Petersville meant life would definitely get worse…only it actually got better.
