Overview
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.
