·A Busy Week for Grandma Pigeon, a Pastry Chef by Chance

In the big oak tree in the forest lives the pigeon grandmother.
Mr. and Mrs. Squirrel live upstairs, and the rabbit girl lives downstairs.
Grandma Pigeon makes a cake.
For example, he is a patissier.
Grandma loves baking cakes and sharing them with her neighbors, and as word got out about how delicious her cakes were, orders started pouring in.
Even this week, orders were full all week long.
On Monday, Mr. Bear has to make a birthday cake for the youngest mouse next door.
On Tuesday, I'll make a cake ordered by a rabbit boy who wants to confess to his first love. On Wednesday, I'll make a cake for Dal-kong, a snail, to eat with his friends after a race. On Thursday, I'll make a cake for a squirrel couple's wedding anniversary. On Friday, I'll make a cake ordered by a cat siblings for Parents' Day. On Saturday, I'll make a cake ordered by an old retriever who's visiting a friend in the hospital.


·Colorful characters and imaginative cakes

Forest guests have different backgrounds and tastes, so the ingredients should be different.
Snails, rabbits, and cats eat different things.
The reasons for ordering are varied, from birthday celebrations, confessions of love, to visiting the sick, and so on, so there are many things to think about.
What kind of cake will Grandma Pigeon make for her neighbors, who all have different tastes and preferences, and each have their own unique stories about their orders?

This picture book depicts moments in life that we remember and celebrate for a long time, using cake as a medium to convey love, gratitude, support, and encouragement to special people on special days.
Each lovely character with their own distinct personality, the intricately detailed props, and the various beautiful wild flowers and fruits catch your eye.
Cakes made with moss and eggshells, cakes made with salmon and bones, cakes with fish heads tucked in… These adorable cakes that stimulate the imagination are a feast for the eyes.
What kind of cake would be perfect for a rabbit confessing his love? What kind of ingredients and shape would be perfect for a cat's Parents' Day cake? Every time I turn the page, I can't help but smile.

A letter as special as a cake, we live together in a whirlwind of joy and sorrow.

The fun of reading the letters sent with the cake is also great.
Letters written to neighbors, family, and friends, expressing their true feelings, fill in the narratives of each character and expand the story.
Mr. Bear's birthday card hints at the sleepless nights spent welcoming his new neighbors, a large family.
The shy love letter of the rabbit boy contains the excitement of first love, and the letter of the snail Dalkong contains the passion of someone who does not give up easily and encourages himself and works hard.
It contains the entirety of our lives, sometimes bickering and sometimes meowing together.

It's a fun and playful story, but it leaves you with a lot to think about as you read.
The wedding cake of the squirrel and the weasel couple is the story of those who bravely got married despite opposition from those around them.
Grandpa Retriever's friend passed away without ever tasting the cake, and the plate of cake slices in front of a photo of the mother cat reminds me of a single-parent family.
In a lighthearted story, it subtly hints that choices that don't receive support or unexpected breakups are also a part of life.

Author's Note

"On a shiny day, eat cake.
I think that the sparkle of life is not only in joy, accomplishment, and love, but also in times of loss and longing. I think that sadness also sparkles, and even the weary heart after giving it its all sparkles.
On days like that, I eat something pretty and delicious, regain a cheerful heart as bright as a piece of cake, and get through the day with renewed strength, waiting for another day.
Then, before you know it, a good day will come again, and you will happily eat cake again."
