…is a fabulous kids book illustrated and written by multi-talented Lisa Cinar. I was fortunate enough to collaborate with her on making a cake to celebrate the book launch! We did a cake shaped like the book’s main character, Mr. Tadaa. How can this guy not make you smile?

Of course the opening of the Reading Room called for a cake….
