Reminiscent of Clementine by Sara Pennypacker, Just Desserts is a sweet little novel about an 8 year-old character nick-named Dessert.  Dessert is the oldest of 4 children in her family and feels tormented by her younger siblings.  Finding that her friends at school are like-minded about their siblings, she forms a club called The Annoying Siblings Club.  Dessert charges a joining fee and gleefully begins spending the money on hot lunches and other treasures.  At first this club seems like the answer to all of Dessert’s problems but it soon backfires as members become dissatisfied with her advice.  The setting of the story alternates between school, home and the family’s gourmet restaurant.  The characters are believable and fun.  Dessert’s quirky teacher Mrs. Howdy Doody is a particular crack-up.  This second book the the Dessert series follows Dessert First but works just fine as a stand-alone.   I enjoyed this little novel and would recommend it for 1st gr. through 4th grade readers.
