Clever Cakes and other stories
(Walker Books Ltd)
978-0744520972, RRP £2.99, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Seven stories with appropriately amusing line drawings by Caroline Holden. Each story features a child character who has to use his or her wits to get out of trouble with such adversaries as the Devil-dog and Gobbleguts the giant. As well as being perfect for reading aloud, Rosen's lively, direct style is highly accessible to confident solo readers who will no doubt want to relish these gems for themselves.
