Aprašymas

Now in paperback! An irresistibly silly, award-winning picture book about a very badly behaved cake who gets a surprising lesson in manners.

"Crammed with hilarious details and gently laced with an important lesson." -School Library Journal, starred review

Who knew cakes could be so rude?

In this deliciously entertaining book, a not-so-sweet cake-who never says please or thank you, doesn't listen to its parents, and certainly doesn't wait its turn-gets its just desserts.

With absurd humor and playful illustrations, Rowboat Watkins turns a familiar lesson about kindness and consideration into a wildly funny read-aloud. Kids will laugh at Rude Cake's outrageous behavior while discovering that, of course, no cake is ever too rude to change.

• BIG LAUGHS FOR LITTLE READERS: Ridiculous behavior, visual jokes, and a wonderfully rude main character make this an irresistible read-aloud for ages 4-8.
• AN AWARD-WINNING FAVORITE: A 2016 Ezra Jack Keats Book Award honor book, Rude Cakes also earned starred reviews from School Library Journal, Booklist, and Publishers Weekly.
• MANNERS WITHOUT THE LECTURE: Beneath the silliness is a smart, kid-friendly story about kindness, listening, self-awareness, and learning to change your behavior.
• FROM ACCLAIMED CREATOR ROWBOAT WATKINS: Watkins brings his unmistakably quirky style to a story that The New York Times praised for bringing "refreshing irreverence to the often deadly mind-your-manners genre." Ideal for fans of Watkins's wildly funny books, including Mousestache Moosestache, Most Marshmallows, and Mabel: A Mermaid Fable.
• A GREAT PICK FOR HOME OR CLASSROOM: Perfect for families, teachers, librarians, and anyone looking for a funny picture book that opens the door to conversations about behavior and social skills.
