The Donut Chef by Bob Staake. A Golden Book, 2008. PICTURE BOOK
EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
Colorful geometric art with a retro feel illustrates this cautionary tale of two bakers vying to have the most successful donut shop. As the feud escalates, their donuts get stranger and stranger with flavors like Peanut-Brickle Buttermilk and shapes like stars and macaroni. Soon the donuts had “lost their taste. They’d lost their soul. They’d even lost their donut hole!” All is saved when little Debbie Sue asks for an old fashioned glazed donut reminding them that simple is best.
It would be fun to read the story and then let the children decorate their own donut. (paper or real)
