All Blake the snake wants to do is bake a cake for his friend Drake's birthday. But mistake after mistake means he keeps having to pump the brakes. How can he share a delicious dessert at the picnic party if each time he bakes, he burns the cake, or it falls in the lake, or—watch out! EARTHQUAKE! Time to give it another take, Blake. Sheer determination is his only hope as he bakes and bakes and BAKES a new cake. 

Married duo Amy and Alison Young will leave readers in stitches as they follow this rambunctious reptile on his quest for the perfect bake.
