Ruby is making a more traditional cake, but Max keeps messing it up and having to go to the store for new ingredients. Max's cake is made out of earthworms, and all he wants for it is some red hot marshmallow shooters. Max and Ruby are both making birthday cakes for their Grandma's birthday. This is my favorite out of the 4 books we got. We got some Max and Ruby books to prep for seeing a live Max and Ruby show at Sesame Place. Especially, since the younger ages are reading it would be more beneficial for them to understand the events taking place. However, I did not give the book five stars because I felt the author should have shown more of how Max made his own cake because it kind of confusing on how it happened. It shows how the older sibling is teaching the younger sibling to learn basic life skills such as baking and going to the store.

The illustrations were also really colorful and would be easy to keep the young readers interested.I also really enjoyed how it shows how the relationship between brother and sister. Without the illustrations, the readers would be confused why Max could not get the grocer to understand that he wanted the Red-Hot Marshmallow Squirters. It showed why the grocer could not understand that Max wanted Red-Hot Marshmallow Squirters because the text never said that Max did not know how to write or draw. The illustrations really made sense of the story. So, his older sister, Ruby, sends him to the store with a list to replace the broken ingredients. The one bunny, Max, keeps knocking all the ingredients over. She is the daughter of Helen Bamberger.īunny Cakes by Rosemary Wells is a well written picture book which is intended for children ages three to five years old.“Bunny Cakes” includes talking bunnies that try to make a cake for their bunny grandmother. 2008 brings Otto Runs For President, followed by Yoko Writes Her Name, scheduled to be published in July.
