A magic recipe for a magic cake! Three angels help create w dreamlike experience for a young girl who is trying to bake a Sky Pie Angel Food Cake. She was so afraid that she would fall asleep while the cake was cooking...did she?Angels and angel food cake. Very a la Little Red Hen. Lovely egg tempura illustrations, though the scenes kind of shifted at times without enough exposition.
One of my favorite books given to me by my sister. About Angels' that love Angel Food Cake.
It's a children's book, but the illustrations alone make it worth the purchase.
The story's perhaps a bit flimsy, but that's only appropriate for a book about what is, after all, angel food cake; it's definitely an enjoyable confection of a book, airy as the real thing.Definitely kudos for Richard Watson's including angels of different ethnicity in his illustrations, and one with (gasp) laugh lines at the corners of his eyes. (Willard's text doesn't specify that, only that one is big, one medium and one smallest.)
Nancy Willard is so brilliant! This captivating story centers on a young girl's desire to give her mother the perfect birthday present. The answer requires some cross generational magic spun throygh with love. This is exactly the kind of book I wish I could create!
I first bought this book for my granddaughter...then read it, and bought another copy for myself! The illustrations are beautiful, and make the book. The story is sweet as well. Enjoy!
