It's time to bake magical spring cakes! But can these adorable kittens find all the ingredients? Find out in this early graphic reader!

It's springtime! Mama Cat is ready to bake her famous spring cakes, enchanted cupcakes heaped with sparkling frosting. Can kittens Nutmeg, Cinnamon, and Ginger find all the magical ingredients she needs? The quest begins! This imaginative and adventurous graphic reader comes from rising comics star Miranda Harmon, co-creator of Mayor Good Boy.

I Like to Read Comics are created for kids just learning to read. Sequential art and simple text--and a powerful relationship between the two--are the perfect conditions for developing readers.
"The panels in Harmon’s bright graphic novel in this entry in the new I Like to Read Comics series are big and friendly, and they are neatly filled with dynamic, eye-catching, colorful art. Appropriately, the language in the speech bubbles (and the few narrative boxes) is simple and straightforward. The only thing missing is a recipe! Young kitty and comics lovers will be right at home."—Kirkus Reviews

"Rendered in a sophisticated and complex palette of rich, warm colors, Harmon’s delightfully wide-eyed cartoon characters brim with kid appeal. Each page includes panels that incorporate visual clues with easy-to-read text."—School Library Journal

"Washed jewel tones and rounded animation-style illustrations keep the magic alive in this sweet story, while Harmon’s accessible prose and chronological art set a solid framework for beginning graphic novel readers." —Publishers Weekly


Miranda Harmon is a comics artist and storyboarder living in Los Angeles, CA. She is the co-creator of the upcoming graphic novel series MAYOR GOOD BOY and a storyboarder on the Cartoon Network show The Fungies.
