What a fantastic read aloud! I loved the clever rhyme and the illustrations were gorgeous. A must for homes with young kids.

A fun and easy read.
Usually it can take me a couple of read throughs to get the flow of a book and to find the best bits to make interactive, but Lion Guards the Cake was purrfect on the first try!
Great funny story, good repetition, has a small morality moment that has kids agreeing Lion should clean up the mess he made and starts fun discussions on what should and should not go into a cake.
A read aloud staple.
