5.0 out of 5 stars A witty story for kids - and grown-ups too!, April 5, 1998

This review is from: Sand Cake: A Frank Asch Bear Story (Library Binding)

This excellent story had even me (the mum) guessing how Baby Bear and Papa Bear were going to make a cake (with milk, flour and eggs) at the beach! Mr Asch has really written a wonderful story that's full of warmth, imagination and originality. My two year old insists that I read it to her at least three times every night. She also loves looking out for little details in the pictures. A month has gone by and she is still excited by it!

This review is from: Sand Cake (Paperback)

Nice description by the other reviewer. I will just add that Sand Cake is not just my favorite children's book -- I'm 53 years old -- but my favorite book, period! (My second-favorite is Sweet Thursday, the sequel to Steinbeck's Cannery Row.) Sand Cake is a short sonata in words and pictures.

This was in excellent condition and was a gift for my sister. It brought us back to when we used to read it when we were young. Great pictures and story.
