The Bakery Dragon and the Fairy Cake

By: Devin Elle Kurtz

Narrated by: Vico Ortiz

Running a bakery is no cakewalk for a tiny dragon with a big sweet tooth! Tummy rumbles turn to belly laughs in this feel-good audiobook from the bestselling author and illustrator of The Bakery Dragon.

Batter up!

Ember is in charge while the baker takes a trip and he's excited to show what he can do! When an opinionated fairy princess swoops in demanding a cake, he eagerly agrees. So what if he's only baked bread before? How hard can it be?

The sugar hits the fan when Ember's first attempt is a complete disaster. He tries again and again, but the royal customer is not happy. Everyone told Ember he was such a good baker, so why can't he get this right? If he doesn't figure it out soon, the only thing on the menu will be humble pie.

Magic shimmers throughout this whimsical story about how to bake a cake, make new friends, and learn from your mistakes.
