How We Share Cake cover

We are three sisters and two brothers.

This is a story about how we can’t eat this cake alone.

A new picture book by Kim Hyo Eun, author of I Am the Subway (2021 World Illustration Award and The New York Times/New York Public Library Best Illustrated Children’s Books Award) Kim Hyo Eun, is the second daughter of five brothers and sisters, and shares the joys and battles of sharing and compromising in a family of five children.

‘Sharing isn’t always caring, but affection and scheming go hand in hand in this sweetly hilarious tale.’

* Kirkus Reviews, ‘Best Books of the Year’ *

‘In a family of five siblings, this book’s narrator — the second-oldest — describes how “we can split anything” … Kim employs pencil and watercolour textures in sweetly amusing spreads that show how a wealth of items are allotted, in this moving work about divisions and connections.’
