The Cake That Mack Ate

It is a perfect choice for winding down before a meal or a nap, offering a rhythmic, predictable structure that provides a sense of security and intellectual satisfaction for young minds. The story follows a cumulative 'House that Jack Built' style, tracing a delicious cake back to its farm-grown ingredients: from the eggs and flour to the sun and rain.
