Ceri and Deri are well known for having a sweet tooth and like visiting both Delwen’s Domain of Desserts and Peredur’s Pudding Palace. But one day Delwen and Peredur have an argument – which are best, puddings or desserts? The two sides finally come together to find the best solution and a delicious compromise.
The latest in the educational Ceri and Deri picture book series, Pudding for Dessert teaches children how two people can see things differently: puddings or desserts. It also shows them the importance of community when settling disputes, as well as the value of friendship, in an accessible and engaging way. Max’s characteristic humour, imagination and illustration style bring the characters and their adventures vividly to life.

Reviews:
'The effortless educational message is lightened by the charm, humour and pure, simple joy.' - Mary Esther Judy, Fallen Star Stories.
'As always the cat and dog duo offer some gentle (or in this case somewhat less gentle) learning concerning different ways of seeing along the way, but it never gets in the way of the fun story, illustrated in Max Low’s characteristic expressive, gently humorous colourful small town scenes.' - Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub

'The story is so fun and the resolution at the end is just so perfect, brilliant and clever too! It’s a good ending and a story with a great message for children and it’s one I’d recommend.' The Strawberry Post
