Ages 3–6 StoryThe Alphabet Bakery
Ding. Order! A slip of paper lands on the counter at the Alphabet Bakery, where Mr. Barley the badger bakes letters instead of bread, and the word on it has been written in jam and smudged to nothing. All that's left are three sounds. Barley is big, busy, and cheerfully sure of himself, and he gets two of the three wrong: a Q from the C tray, then a duh where a tuh should be. Three real pauses let your child say each sound out loud, name the letter, and put them together into the word before he does. One great big cake with CAT on it goes in the oven. Then the bell rings again, and the next smudged order is for something Barley already has. A comedy with letter sounds in it, not a drill. Ends on the joke.

What's inside
A smudged cake order with three sounds left on it, and Mr. Barley the badger, who bakes letters instead of bread, gets two of the three wrong.
Meets Mr. Barley, big and busy and never sorry, and twenty-six trays of hot letters he rattles through at speed: A, B, C, D, no.
Three built-in pauses: your child says the sound, names the letter, and puts C, A, T together before Barley shouts it. A comedy, not a drill. Ends on the next order.
