Summary
The first in a new madcap, hilarious series about Bridget Vanderpuff, whipsmart inventor and amateur sleuth with a taste for adventure. It's a recipe for fun with mystery, villainy, cake and sprinkles of silliness, heart and hope.
Bridget Baxter is the very last orphan at the Orphanage for Errant Childs, left at the mercy of the awful Miss Acrid and her foul-smelling fish sandwiches. Miss Acrid's mission is to make Bridget's life a misery. But Bridget is more than a match for her.
When kindly Mr Vanderpuff arrives at the Orphanage in search of a child to care for, Bridget thinks her luck has finally turned. Mr Vanderpuff is the village baker, and his shop is a world of wonders. But they soon discover that Bridget is absolutely terrible at baking. When Miss Acrid returns for the ultimate revenge, Bridget must open the Locked and Secret Door, navigate Miss Acrid's spiderweb of booby traps and use her unique baking skills to save herself – and Mr Vanderpuff – from certain disaster.
Join Bridget as she dons her chef whites and gets the kwassongs at the ready... Baking isn't such a piece of cake.
Critic reviews
'Martin Stewart's new book is generously stuffed with irreverent imagination and warm-hearted jokes. Bridget is a deliciously flavoursome character and her adventures are sure to be gobbled up by eager readers in a single sitting. I'm sure I won't be the only one asking: "Please Sir, may I have some more?"' (Keith Gray, author of The Climbers)
