The flavorful finale to The Kandy Kingdom Saga trilogy-a laugh-out-loud middle-grade fantasy adventure for readers ages 8-12 (grades 3-6).
The blazing hot Dessert Desert is no mirage. It's a perilous new world filled with wacky baked-goods critters, chocolate-lava-cake volcanoes, and a literal cookie monster-a fearsome fifty-foot-high Scone-a-saurus.
Thrust into another tasty land of magic, seventh-grade heroes Cassie and Landon pursue their longtime nemesis, Tubba Bubba Gum. But for the first time, the best friends are divided: Cassie wants to destroy Tubba once and for all, while Landon insists he should stand trial back in the Kingdom. As tensions mount, a traitor emerges in their ranks, threatening to crumble the mission before it begins.
Back in the real world, Landon faces impeachment as class president and Cassie struggles to keep her skateboarding crew together. With pressures on both sides of the portal, can the duo overcome their differences and put an end to Tubba's reign of terror?
Perfect for fans of Origami Yoda, NERDS, and The Land of Stories, The Dessert Desert blends fantasy adventure, grounded humor, and magical mystery. Exploring themes of courage, friendship, and standing up for what's right, this unforgettable finale is a must-have for libraries, classrooms, and parents looking for a magical series that leaves kids hungry for one last bite.
