living inside a cake

There was once an old woman who lived in a shoe,

she had so many children she didn't know what to do,

so she packed up her clothes and her bath and her bed,

and went to live in a cake-house instead.

I've always wanted to do a cut-through drawing of a house. I made the stars and chandeliers all sparkly but you can't tell from this scan.

'We didn't really like her...'

This is one of my answers to the brief 'Conversation piece.' I don't know where it came from. The image just popped into my head when I was in bed. Ha and now I am rhyming.

We have to draw at least eight illustrations on this topic.
