Description
Book SynopsisPorcupine and Moose come to enjoy Rabbit’s big day, but everything goes south when impulsive Moose loses control of his appetite!
With hilarious bits of dialogue throughout, I Love Cake! is not only a dynamic read-aloud, it works as an inspiration for a short play.
Trade ReviewLaid-back language and a subtle rhythm-all three characters make comments in speech-bubbles on each page-make this happy-go-lucky picture book fun to read aloud. -- ALA Booklist Moose's confessional monologue, which appears in a page crammed with all-caps text, is laugh-out-loud funny ("Is it my fault my mouth's so big that the whole cake kind of fell right in?" he wails). -- Publishers Weekly Rozelaar's digital illustrations portray Moose as a big-eyed, rather bumbling goof (in a wildly patterned and colorful sweater) next to his more delicate (and hapless in the case of Porcupine) friends, setting up the story nicely. A lesson in sharing that goes down as easily as, well, cake. -- Kirkus ...The cartoon animals are sweet and expressive. Readers will ask for seconds of this fun title. Super for storytime or one-on-one sharing. -- School Library Journal
