Summary
Clever Jack Takes the Cake
Take a bite out of this deliciously funny original fairy tale, which received four starred reviews and was named a Best Book of the Year by Booklist , School Library Journal , Kirkus Reviews , and the Bank Street College of Education. What would you do if you were invited to the princess#146;s tenth birthday party but didn#146;t have money for a gift? Well, clever Jack decides to bake the princess a cake. Now he just has to get it to the castle in one piece. What could possibly go wrong? Candace Fleming and G. Brian Karas, creators of the bestselling picture book Muncha! Muncha! Muncha!, have teamed up again to bring us a modern fairy tale starring a determined boy and a story-loving princess with a good sense of humor. While girls will fall for a story featuring a princess#146;s birthday party, Jack#146;s adventures with trolls, bears, and gypsies make this the perfect read for young boys as well#151;and ideal for storytime.
