Spot Bakes a Cake
by Eric Hill
Publication Date: 1994
Publisher: Penguin Group
ISBN: 0-7232-5767-1
Summary/back cover:
Spot plans a surprise for his dad’s birthday. Lift the flaps in this lively picture book to see how he succeeds in creating a very special cake.
Another Spot the dog book. This book does have a story – Spot’s dad is about to have a birthday so Spot, with the help of his mum, goes about purchasing the ingredients, then mixing and baking the cake, and waiting for it to cook. There’s a mouse helping Spot, which I found to be a little unsanitary… but given that this occurs in a world where dogs can push trolleys at the supermarket and bake cakes I guess it stands to reason that there’s no harm in a mouse licking the spatula! I love reading this one to my 23 month-old boys whenever there is a birthday celebration coming up and then “we” bake a cake, make a birthday card and blow up balloons just like in Spot’s story.
My rating: 4 out of 5
