This book can be used in the intro pre-school/kinder years to talk about the expectations for show and tell and provide some examples for kids to use. The illustrations are great and visually similar to the cartoon version.

This is a great picture read book.

It is about Ruby's show and tell day at school. Ruby is wanting to bake a cake and share it with her friends and Max wants to help. After the cake is done and Ruby heads to school, Max realizes that Ruby is not going to share that wonderful cake with him. Max makes his own cake from mud and other earth materials and follows her to school. Max is pleased when Ruby's teacher smiles and accepts his cake. ( )
