Cake Book
Trying to find an old children’s book about a pineapple upside down cake?
When everyone turns upside down they have to eat some more cake to get straight again. My grandmother used to read me a book with this story (I was born in 1962) and it is one of my most fond memories of my childhood. I would love to find that book and read it at her memorial service.
Eight Animals Bake a Cake
“Eight animals, ready to bake,
get out of bed to go bake a cake.
Mouse brings the sugar, one heavy cup.
Ratón says, ‘Azúcar will start things right up.’”
Mouse, Cat, Dog, Frog, Bird, Horse, Cow, and Pig are back! This time they each bring an ingredient to bake a cake. But something goes terribly wrong! Then Vaca and Pájaro have an idea to save the day. This rhyming English book incorporates 30 Spanish words into its text, with a glossary in the back.

The Christmas Crocodile by Bonnie Becker
Uncle Theodore is huffing, Aunt Figgy is fretting, and Alice Jayne is tapping her foot–pretty subdued behavior considering the fact that a hungry crocodile has just appeared under the Christmas tree. This eccentric family handles the mysterious reptile remarkably well, even though the beast seems to have an appetite as fierce as its legendary bite. The Christmas Crocodile tears around the house eating everything in sight, whether edible (a roast, five golden oranges, a pineapple upside-down cake) or inedible (a shoe, ribbons, a feather boa, earmuffs, and fruitcake). The family is divided over how to best deal with this unexpected guest. Send him to an orphanage? Pack him off to the zoo? Make him into a pair of shoes? “He’s nice,” said Alice Jayne. “Maybe we could keep him.” Just when it seems the crocodile has eaten all he can stomach, the family awakens to discover that he has consumed nearly all the presents and the Christmas tree too! The one uneaten gift holds the key to this toothsome tale, as well as a surprise that will have kids smiting their foreheads in gleeful anticipation of more mayhem to come.
Author Bonny Becker has crafted a rollicking reptile romp, with an apologetic refrain–”The Christmas Crocodile didn’t mean to be bad, not really”–to which children can surely relate. David Small, creator of the Caldecott Honor-winning The Gardener, accompanies Becker’s spritely, funny text with equally amusing, expressive illustrations that will have youngsters poring over this book long after the last present has been unwrapped. (Ages 4 to
