Gr 4-6-Here is just the book for playful bakers: there are four cake recipes; three icing recipes; and 19 different creations, including cakes in the shape of a mouse, a house, a butterfly, and a bus. Each recipe makes one large oblong layer, two round or square layers, or 24 cupcakes. All of the "amazing cakes," shown in colored photographs and how-to drawings, can be made from the basic shapes. Be aware, however, that the actual completed projects may not look as professional as the ones in the pictures; the dinosaur and haunted castle cakes are more complicated than the others; and applying lines of icing by way of a punctured plastic bag is difficult. Otherwise, as the series title states, "Kids Can Do It." The directions are clear and the format is clean.
