What it's about: A Tangle of Knots is about an eleven year old orphan girl named Cady who has a talent of cake baking. One day a man decides to adopt her. They move into an apartment building. Soon Toby (Cady's adopted father) decides to move from the apartment building. Cady enters a cake baking contest. At the contest she finds her true father.
