Synopsis

One winter morning, while the moon is still up, Mrs Bear and Sam bake cakes for all their friends on Plum Street. And who do you think takes the cakes up to each doorstep...all by himself? Parents and children everywhere will recognize the first brave steps of any child doing something by themselves for the first time - and the elation they feel when they achieve it!

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Amy Hest is the author of many books, including "Kiss Good Night", "When Jessie Came Across the Sea" (winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal) and "In the Rain with Baby Duck", winner of the Boston Globe-Horn Book Award.

Born in Portsmouth, 1965, Anita worked in a variety of jobs after leaving school (in a factory and a kennel) before becoming a children's book illustrator. Anita is married to a palaeontologist and has three children and a menagerie of animals, including cats, dogs, rabbits, toads, a lizard, a snake and a tortoise. She lives in Northern Ireland, and hopes, eventually, to set up a wildlife sanctuary there. As an artist Anita did a foundation course in visual studies at Manchester Polytechnic, followed by a degree course in illustration. Her first book, "Bill's Belly Button", was published a year after she graduated. Anita is best known for her illustrations for the picture book "Guess How Much I Love You", which was shortlisted for the 1994 Kurt Maschler Award, and is now one of the world's best-selling picture books. Illustrating was a labour of love, she says. "Every time I read this book, I want to cry. The story reminds me so much of my own son, who often plays this kind of game with when it's time for bed." In 2004, Anita reunited with "Guess How Much I Love You" author Sam McBratney to produce the follow-up, "You're All My Favourites".
