Sometimes you find home where you least expect it. Twelve-year-old Alba doesn' t want to live with her estranged grandmother in Barcelona. She wants to stay with her mom, even if that means enduring her dad' s cutting comments to them both. But in her new home, Alba forms a close relationship with her grandmother, gains a supportive father figure and new friends, and even discovers a passion and talent for baking. And through getting to know the city her mother used to call home, Alba starts to understand her mother better. When her beloved bakery is threatened with closure, Alba is determined to find a way to save it-and at the same time, she may just come up with a plan to make her family whole again.
