Book Reviews of The Donut Chef (A Golden Classic)

Book Review: My daughter loves this book!
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this book because we have checked it out at the library many times over the last year and most recently renewed it 3 times in a row. My daughter just turned 5 and I bought it for her birthday. It is a very cute and clever book. The book is fun to read for adults and my daughter just loves the illustrations. It was the catalyst for her bakery themed birthday party and "doughnut cake" (doughnuts stacked in the form of a cake). It is actually a pleasure to read aloud because the rhyming flows and the story is good. The only reason I waited so long to buy it was because I was hoping it would come out in paperback. Paperback books are just easier (and lighter) to travel with. Overall, a great original kids story.

Summary of The Donut Chef (A Golden Classic)

IN THIS DELICIOUS tale, a baker hangs out his shingle on a small street, and soon, the line for his doughnuts stretches down the block. But it?s not long before the competition arrives and a battle of the bakers ensues. In the competitive frenzy, both bakers? doughnuts become ?quite bizarre, like Cherry-Frosted Lemon Bar, and Peanut-Brickle Buttermilk, or Gooey Coca- Mocha Silk!? Some are not even very tasty: ?Donuts made with huckleberry (don?t be scared, they?re kind of hairy).? One day, Debbie Sue, just barely two, enters the bakery, and searches in vain for her favorite doughnut, where ?the choice of donuts left her dazed. Said Debbie Sue, ?But I want . . . glazed.? A fun lesson in keeping it simple in which our hero chef decides to go back to the basics, and wins over the whole town.
