Clara Lee and the Apple Pie Dream

Meet Clara Lee.
Likes: her best friends, her grandpa, her little sister (when she’s not being annoying, which is almost always), candy necklaces, her fancy Korean dress, and the Apple Blossom Festival.

Dislikes: her little sister (when she’s being annoying, which is almost always), her mom’s yucky fish soup, and bad dreams (even though Grandpa says they mean good luck).
Clara Lee’s luck keeps changing. Will she have good luck again in time to win the Little Miss Apple Pie pageant?
