About ‘Lion Guards the Cake’
Ruth Paul has written an enchanting children’s book, relatable to anyone who finds it difficult to resist the temptation of a sweet treat in the house
Will temptation get the better of Lion?
The house is quiet, no one is awake, and Lion guards the cake. Little by little the cake disappears … but where does it go? Lion is full of pride when it comes to guarding his home and when the birthday cake has been made for the next day’s celebrations, he goes where he is needed most … to guard the cake. But in the morning, the household awakes to a chaotic scene. What happened when Lion was guarding the cake?
Ruth Paul has written a clever rhyming story, peppered with onomatopoeia that will delight readers. Her illustrations are full of joie de vivre, humour and visual delights. Children will enjoy following the perseverance of the determined mice, a cat and a dog to get to the cake.
Ruth Paul is an award-winning author and illustrator, with titles Stomp!, Bad Dog Flash, Bye-Bye Grumpy Fly, My Dinosaur Dad, My Meerkat Mum and the popular Mini Whinny series among her collection.
