I just picked up the review copies of my new book with #RiverRoadPress titled WHO GOT THE BABY IN THE KING CAKE?, and I am ecstatic with the way the book turned out! The #MardiGrasGuide guru Arthur Hardy gave the book this fabulous advance review:
“Downing does it again! Johnette lends her considerable skills to explaining a Carnival culinary classic—king cake—in this delightful and colorful addition to her library of titles designed to entertain and educate kids of all ages.” - Arthur Hardy, publisher, Mardi Gras Guide.
Here is a sneak peek at some inside page spreads. Sorry for the dark iPhone images.
The song for the book was recorded with members of the Dukes of Dixieland, and is on my upcoming Swamp Romp, A Louisiana Dance Party for Children record, with hubby Scott Billington, slated for a January 2019 release.
You can pre-order the book from my website HERE, or through River Road Press HERE.
Who got the baby in the king cake? It just might be YOU!
