Media Reviews
Lucas (Halibut Jackson) writes and paints with quiet affection for his characters. Watching Cake Girl teach the witch new social skills is a treat. * Publishers' Weekly *
A thing of beauty, in which a grizzled old witch discovers that being nice to a friend - even one you've knocked together out of cake-mix - brings unexpected rewards. Neither could fail to charm anyone under six. * Independent on Sunday *
Each page has plenty to look at and as the cake girl gently teached the witch to change her ways and children will love the magic they perform together, especially towards the end they swirl up the page as fireworks and birds. * Brighton Argus *
Eye-catching illustrations draw the reader into a magical story of friendship and fun. * Early Years Educator *
A sweet and charming story presented in the author-illustrator's trademark style. It's playful and funny. * School Librarian *
