Oh yeah, I got to get copies to the nieces and nephews

A lot of science about baking. A bit long for a picture book. But, for it being supplemental to the TV show, it's pretty good. Focusing on the science was a much better choice than just doing screen grabs and retreading the story.

These Ada Twist: The Why File books are amazing! Each book focuses on a different topic and explores all the scientific principles involved. This one explored baking and all the chemical reactions that occur. They are written at a 2nd-3rd grade reading level and are really engaging and fun to read. I love seeing collections of STEM books growing on different reading levels and various topics.

12/18/2022 ~ A cool next-gen version of Ada Twist with a nonfiction focus. However, where's Sophia Valdez?

I did think that it was interesting that the authors chose to change the word leavening agent to rising agent.

I can't wait to introduce this whole series to my elementary readers.

Ada Twist decides to bake a birthday cake for her father's birthday. Using science she explains all steps used to baking the cake, and explains how baking is a science. An informative read with bits of history included and simple science experiments at the end of the book.
