A zesty series for fans of kids' cooking competitions! It's “lights, camera, cook!” for four tween contestants—energetic Tate, charming Rae, worldly Caroline, and hyper-competitive Oliver—who are all about to enter a televised cooking competition.
     What will the kids cook up? How will they all get along on- and off-camera? Which junior chef will have the grit—and maybe the grits—to make it through each challenge? And which junior chef will have to hang their apron up for good?
     Bonus: Includes real cooking techniques for the aspiring young chef! "[Lights, Camera, Cook! is] an entertaining behind-the-scenes look at ambitious foodie kids doing what they do best; readers should be eager to discover who will be forced to hang up their aprons in the next book." –Publishers Weekly   "A mouthwatering read for all foodies. Be sure to save room for the next two volumes." –SLJ   "...a must-read for all junior foodies!" –Kirkus
