About the Book

Olive and her brother Joe have two homes—one with Mom and one with Dad. Olive loves them both, but she has a secret worry: What if she doesn't show them she loves them equally?

When Olive visits her grandparents and helps Grandma bake pies, she discovers something magical: love isn't like a cookie that needs to be split in half. It's like the secret ingredient in Grandma's pies—you never run out, no matter how much you give.
