There’s a smell I can’t ignore.
It’s wafting through the kitchen door.
It’s time for me to find out more.
I think it might be cake.

How do you resist the most amazing cake ever? Especially when your mum has left a note saying that you MUST NOT eat the cake?

This wonderful rhyming text from Simon Philip, author of You Must Bring a Hat, is illustrated with huge energy and humour by Lucia Gaggiotti.

This book was about a girl wanting cake. The cake was really chocolate and sweet and delicious. The girl and I couldn’t resist the cake. Then she said sorry to her mum and made a new cake.

Chocolate cake has been made but how will she resist not eating the cake when she isn't allowed. And if she does, what will she do to stay out of trouble?!

She is so funny that she eats the whole cake and then makes another one. I don’t think the cake she makes would taste very nice

Hilarious book. It teaches you a good lesson about what happens when you don't listen and that you should always tell the truth. I liked when the character said, "I really want the cake". I also liked when she tried to make another cake. It was a good rhyming story.

I really like it when she tried to not eat the cake but she changed her mind and threw the message from mum away. I like that she just ate the cake.

The girl just wants the cake and the dog does too, even just a little bit. She doesn't want to tell her mum, just sneak up and eat one bite.
