Life isn’t always a bowl full of red jelly beans.  Even Poppy Johnson, straight-A extraordinaire, main character in Jolene Stockman’s new novel, The Jelly Bean Crisis, knows that.  Poppy has lived by her infamous Jelly Bean Theory for years.  Eat the worst jelly beans first, in order to get the best ones later. The same applies to Poppy’s life.  Study for SATS.  Win the Denton Award.  Go to Columbia.  Wall Street.  The worst comes first.  Then, on to the finest jelly beans in life.  Money.  Influence.
