Description
Come out for a day at the beach bakeshop with a creative little baker and her sweet, sandy treats in this adorable preschool picture book.
Sand cake, Sun cake, Sprinkle-topped with rocks cake. Will you eat what I baked?
A fun day at the beach means making some sweet treats to share with everyone! The main ingredient? Sand of course!
No matter how yummy her rock-sprinkled cakes, seaweed pies and sea foam cream puffs look, this little beachside baker can’t seem to get ANYONE to eat her sandy sweets. Even the seagulls turn their beaks up! Will she ever find a customer willing to give them a try?
Buoyantly poetic, this funny and sweet picture book from author Kallie George, featuring endearing illustrations from Devon Holzwarth, is a read-aloud treat for readers of all ages.

Editorial Reviews
"The lovely, pastel-colored artwork beautifully reflects the girl's hard work and determination, even if no one really appreciates her efforts. The message of working hard as its own reward, and the path to happiness, is one that young readers and adults alike will appreciate." —School Library Journal
