Spunky and likable, Phoebe is a budding foodie who's sure to win over your heart--and stomach! Phoebe's best friend, Sage, has the same lunch every day: a turkey sandwich, a cheese stick, and a bag of popcorn.

She and Camille come up with the perfect solution: a cooking club to show Sage how many exciting foods there are! But will it be enough to convince Sage? Or will it spoil their friendship?

Review quotes

Praise for Phoebe G. Green, Lunch Will Never Be the Same!

Hiranandani has a light touch when exploring the friendship issues of these three likable characters. Nothing is over-the-top, and the plot is fun and easy to understand for the newest chapter-book readers... With all the foodies out there, this delightful series deserves a long shelf life...and many more courses.—Kirkus Reviews

The plot is engaging and easy to follow... Fans of Junie B. Jones and Judy Moody or those who like realistic fiction and friendship stories will enjoy this chapter book.—School Library Journal

This is a splendid attempt to convey several lessons about growing pains to young readers, with age-appropriate humor via an outspoken, lovable, take-charge narrator.—Booklist
