Reviews for Caterpillar Cake: Read-Aloud Poems to Brighten Your Day

Vibrantly illustrated and inviting to look at, as well as read. Its characters show diversity, so any child can see themselves in the pictures and poetry. It would be a welcome staple in the early years and primary year 1 classroom with its lightness and fun. * Just Imagine * The illustrations burst off the page in joyful colour. A vibrant palette and strong images complement the words bringing them to life before they are spoken. The whole design of this book is a delight... A book to really enjoy and one that should not be hidden but easily found among the picture books ready for storytime. * Books for Keeps *
