A Piece of Cake by Jill Murphy

In this latest instalment of the Large family stories, Mrs Large declares herself to be too fat! She insists that the whole family is put through their paces, with a strict diet and exercise regime for them all. Yet temptation comes in the form of a gift from granny – a delicious cake. Will it prove too hard to resist? A good old-fashioned tale about accepting yourself for you who are and highlighting that everyone (and everything) comes in different shapes and sizes. As always, the Large family prove themselves to be the perfect fit for bedtime reading.
