The Doughnut King

Age range 9 to 12

Tris Levin thought moving from New York City to middle-of-nowhere Petersville, meant life would definitely get worse…but it actually somehow got better. Just when things start to look up though, problems start rolling in.

Problem: His doughnut business has a major supply issue, not to mention Petersville having its own supply problem - it doesn’t have enough people.

Solution: Petersville becomes a tourist destination, and his shop could be a big part of it - if Tris can keep up with demand.

Enter: a $50,000 doughnut machine and a cutthroat competitive kids’ cooking show that Tris needs to win in order to buy it.

You can bet dollars to doughnuts that Tris has what it takes to win!
