한 아이의 생일날. 역시 케이크가 빠질 수 없겠죠? 케이크를 만들기 위해 아이는 몇몇 동물 친구들에게 재료를 모아달라고 부탁합니다. 닭은 달걀을, 곰은 밀가구를, 고양이는 버터와 우유를, 돼지는 소금을, 개는 설탕을, 원숭이는 케이크 꼭대기에 놓을 체리를! 다함께 힘을 모아 즐겁게 케이크를 만들고, 만든 케이크를 먹는 건 훨씬 즐겁답니다!

What could be better than sharing a birthday cake with the friends who helped to bake it?

 It's one lucky toddler's birthday, and of course there must be a cake. So the child asks some animal friends to gather ingredients, one by one: the chicken an egg, the bear some flour, the cat the butter and milk, the pig a pinch of salt, the dog some sugar, and the monkey a bunch of cherries for the top. After they all share the fun of making the cake, it's even more fun to eat it! Helen Oxenbury's winsome illustrations and simple, repetitive text make this an ideal gift for the youngest of children.
