Can you imagine a dream sweeter than one filled with treats and magic? Have you ever danced with gingerbread? Baked In welcomes readers to slide into a bountiful dreamscape filled with wonder, dancing gingerbread, an infinite selection of confections Dreamers, young and old, will love being tossed into a mix of pop-art style illustration and lyrical storytelling that takes them on a delicious journey.

Baked In is part of The Dreamscape Series, which is a collection of picture books that celebrates inclusiveness. No matter our gender, race, or cultural differences, everyone dreams. Through playful verse and imagery, the books introduce new words and information that strengthen vocabulary, language, and reading skills while exploring a colorful dreamscape (the environment of the book's dream). Each dreamscape is built around rhyming stanzas that capture the fluid nature of dreaming, increase word retention, and continually engage the reader. Refreshing our point of view and exploring dreamscapes can lead to great self-discoveries, inviting the worlds of our dreams to come alive. Dreams are boundless as is our imagination and ability to be compassionate humans.
