Part of Dish

Illustrated by Barbara Pollack
It’s Chinese New Year, Peichi’s favorite holiday! And this year, she’s psyched about sharing it with her best friends. But when Peichi blows off her schoolwork because of the celebrations, she is grounded by Dish. And when the other girls come down with the flu, they have to put their business on the back burner—and risk losing customers. How can the Chef Girls keep Dish running smoothly when so much is going wrong?
