★ “Barrett’s delightful story, told in rhyming couplets, is about friends who don’t hesitate to help a friend in need.... Coming to the aid of a friend benefits everyone in this gratifying tale” – Booklist, starred review 

The tiny baker offers sweets, a chalkboard list of daily treats… 
Her customers line up in rows. Antennae wave well-bred hellos. 

Insect customers clamor to dine at the tiny baker’s cafe to get a taste of her daily sweets. Her kitchen is always abuzz, yet pristine, with whisks whisking and mixers whirring. When the ladybug pastry chefs get an urgent call to swarm away, the kitchen is left a disaster! The oven’s smoking. Kettle glows. The souffle batter overflows. But the tiny baker soon learns the power of friendship and community in a time of need.
