When I started this book I was optimistic that they would show what not to do, how to change and become better at being kind and using manners. As the book went on it was too focused on the negative and rude behaviour that there was not enough book to show the correction of the rude cakes behaviour. It seemed to end off on a note that assumed you would know how it all turned out. That suddenly the rude cake was kind and that everyone just automatically followed that behaviour. Not the best to teach young ones how to change or properly behave.

This book, unsurprisingly, is about cakes that are very rude. They don't say please and they don't apologize. They learn valuable lessons, however, when some very polite Cyclopses turn their world upside down [cake] (sorry.) Silly and wonderful throughout, this surreal story will have you and your kids laughing from beginning to end (and in the market for jaunty little hats.)

Who doesn't love to wear jaunty little hats? An anthropomorphic cake learns a lesson in manners from a cyclops. Absurdity at its finest.
