Publisher's Weekly Review - 5/18/20
"The combination of delicious treats and tantalizing delay keeps the tension high, and the cooperative kitchen antics of LouAnn’s guests as they attempt to redress their wrongs...deliver as much satisfaction as the new doughnuts themselves."

"Kids will enjoy the clever rhymes so much they won’t suspect they’re getting a math lesson in the process."
