A propos du livre

Revue de presse

"A thing of beauty, in which a grizzled old witch discovers that being nice to a friend - even one you've knocked together out of cake-mix - brings unexpected rewards. Neither could fail to charm anyone under six." (Independent on Sunday)

"His spidery, witty line and self-referring invented worlds bring to mind such great exponents of graphic art as Saul Steinberg and Paul Klee." (Ian Beck The Times)

"Lucas (Halibut Jackson) writes and paints with quiet affection for his characters. Watching Cake Girl teach the witch new social skills is a treat." (Publishers' Weekly)

"Chaotically humorous, fun and original... a wealth of detail that will no doubt intrigue young readers." (Carousel)

"Eye-catching illustrations draw the reader into a magical story of friendship and fun." (EYE)

Quatrième de couverture

The Witch is alone on her birthday - again! So she bakes a Cake Girl, and tells her to sing 'Happy Birthday' and dance, and smile, and make her laugh - and do all the housework...
"And then," said the Witch, "I'll eat you."
What will Cake Girl do?

A delicious new picture book from the creator of Halibut Jackson and The Robot and the Bluebird. David Lucas is one of The Big Picture's Best New Illustrators.
