My review:
5*
Patty Costello has come up with acute story for kids. From small Children to about the age of 8 would enjoy this story. The words used are easy to semi easy so would be great for young readers. Diane Cojocaru has done an awesome job with illustrations. They are vibrant and bright and very engaging to the kids. Our youngest child enjoyed flipping through the pages, even after we read the book. 

This is a cute story for kids. The King doesn't like the people outside of his Kingdom and decides that to build a wall around it to keep everyone else out. His Baker Catalina over hears this. Her family lives outside of the Kingdom and she will never be able to see them again if the king gets his way. 

Catalina comes up with a way to build a wall that will not last, hoping the King will eventually change his mind. First she offers icing, then sprinkles, then cookie dough. In the end the King does change his mind and Catalina is able to see her family. 


I received this book from the Author or Publisher to read and review. The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it.
