        Die süßeste Bande der Welt. Vier Freundinnen wirbeln los!

        Der Muffin-Club (1 & 2)

        by Alves, Katja

        Die süßeste Mädchenbande der Welt jetzt im Sammelband! Die vier Freundinnen Lulu, Lin, Tamtam und Miranda gehen gemeinsam durch dick und dünn und erleben die großartigsten Abenteuer. Sie wissen ganz nebenbei aber auch, was man alles für einen nachwachsenden Kuchen braucht. Oder wie man das coolste Ballettkostüm aller Zeiten (er-)findet … Lulu liebt Kuchen, deshalb ist sie Feuer und Flamme, für das Schulfest einen riesigen nachwachsenden Kuchen zu backen. Zunächst sind ihre Klassenkameradinnen Miranda, Lin und Tamtam alles andere als begeistert von dieser Idee. Sie haben eigentlich besseres zu tun als Lulu beim Backen zu helfen! Doch sie wären nicht beste Freundinnen, wenn sie einander nicht in jeder Lebenslage helfen würden! Deshalb machen sich die vier Mädchen auch direkt ans Werk. Und so entstehen zwischen Zuckerguss und Schokolade nicht nur die besten Muffins der Welt, sondern etwas viel Größeres: Der Muffin-Club wird geboren. Und die zuckerbäcker-beste-Freundinnen Lulu, Miranda, Lin und Tamtam müssen auch gleich ihren ersten spannenden Fall lösen … Miranda möchte eigentlich gar kein Ballett tanzen, aber ihre Mutter steckt sie trotzdem in die Ballettschule, denn das sei so „gut für die Haltung“. Dort ist auch die neidische Ines, die alles daran setzt, den Muffin-Club zu entzweien und dafür sorgt, dass die Freundschaft der viel Muffin-Mädchen auf eine harte Probe gestellt wird … Der Sammelband enthält die Bände „Der Muffin-Club (1). Die süßeste Bande der Welt“ und „Der Muffin-Club (2). Vier Freundinnen wirbeln los!“.
