In Zuzu Tells the Kitchen Truth, baking day goes a little "whoops!" when Zuzu grabs the wrong container and the family's apple pie tastes... well, interesting. With a dignified cat named Sir Whiskers, patient parents, and a warm kitchen full of giggles, Zuzu discovers that telling the truth fixes messes faster than fibs-and turns mishaps into memories.
