When Life Gives You Lemons, Make Peach Pie

By Erin Downing

Hey, bookworms! It’s been a while since my last post, so I’ll try to post more on my blog! So, this book really tackles issues in a family, and I hope if you read this, you will love it as much as I do!

This book is about three kids, Herb, Lucy, and Freddy Peach. Still reeling from the death of their mother, the Peach family is more fractured than ever. Their father, in an attempt to bring his family back together, buys a food truck so that he and his family can go around the states selling pies! But when their new adventure starts to go wrong, can this family pull themselves back together? Or will this trip be the final hit to shatter this already fractured family?

I think Erin Downing is trying to show us some important lessons about family. Your family will always be a part of you, despite what you may wish. And families are worth extra effort because even if you’re fighting, you’re still flesh and blood. Families are different. Some quirky, some fun, some strange, some happy! Not everyone is the same. Otherwise, we would live in a very boring world.
