Book Band: Lime (Ideal for ages 6+)


A funny story about a madcap race to the finish line... with cake! Written by Teresa Heapy, author of The Marvellous Moon Map.

Seven-year-old Jamila sees a notice for a Great Cake Race in her local park and, despite having never baked before, she is eager to enter. But Jasper Dedicoat – the self-proclaimed best baker in town – has also entered and will do anything to win. Who will win the race, and what will they learn along the way? This zany story is accompanied by black-and-white illustrations by Erica Salcedo, illustrator of the Kid Normal series.
