"... a natural read-aloud that provides a paired reading opportunity to increase fluency, listen for rhyming words, and develop vocabulary skills: adults could read the "steps" followed by the children chanting the refrains or vice versa. The refrains also lend themselves to introducing the concept of active verbs: each one is chock full of them. The verbs could also be used as gross motor or dramatic play activities by acting them out. Perhaps some families would be inspired to bake a cake of their own? ... a great addition to a primary classroom or home library." -- The Pirate Tree

"In this story, dinosaur is hungry and decides to make a cake. Throughout his process, readers can get their wiggles out by following along with the book's bold action words. At the end of the story, it is a tossup if your kiddo will want to immediately start the story over or go make a real cake."
