Industry Reviews

Sometimes Cake is a sweet tale about the joy of special days that are worth blowing up balloons and scattering confetti for, but is also a good reminder that sometimes we should just be grateful for pockets of time that can be spent with friends... ideal for preschoolers * Books and Publishing *
Sometimes Cake is picture-book perfection at its scrumptious best! If this book were a cake, I'd gobble it up again and again and again. In every way, it reads a treat. The text is simple and effortless without a word misplaced, and the soft water-colour illustrations bring a playful, whimsical feel to the story. * Readings *
Highly recommended. I love the sparse text, brimming with subtle overtones, encouraging children to be more aware of how their friends are feeling. * ReadPlus *
A charming story... The illustrations are equally delightful as the story itself. * Blog of Dad *
picture book perfection... and should be enjoyed over and over again * PictureBookBC Instagram *
Trust me, you want to add this to your collection or your library list! * little_smiths_play - instagram *

This story by Wyatt endeavours to show little minds that not every day has to be over the top, and that our ordinary days are just as important and are also worth celebrating! The watercolour illustrations by Tamsin Ainslie were absolutely stunning.
