A funny story about a madcap race to the finish line... with cake! Written by Teresa Heapy, author of The Marvellous Moon Map.

Seven-year-old Jamila sees a notice for a Great Cake Race in her local park and is desperate to enter - despite having never baked before. But Jasper Dedicoat - the self-proclaimed best baker in town - has also entered and will do anything to win. Who will win the race, and what will they learn along the way? This zany story is accompanied by black-and-white illustrations by Erica Salcedo, illustrator of the Kid Normal series.

The Bloomsbury Readers series is packed with book-banded stories to get children reading independently in Key Stage 2 by award-winning authors like double Carnegie Medal winner Geraldine McCaughrean and Waterstones Prize winner Patrice Lawrence. With black-and-white illustrations and online guided reading notes written by the Centre for Literacy in Primary Education (CLPE), this series is ideal for home and school.
