Sugar is famous in her neighborhood for her sweet tooth.

Every afternoon, she walks to the local bakery known as Kitty’s Cupcake Corner, where she looks longingly in the window at the variety of cupcakes on display.

They are frosted with vanilla, peppermint, orange, and lemon, and are swirled, covered with sprinkles, or just plain. Sugar’s eyes get really big when she sees the strawberry ones.

Kathleen Kitty, world renowned baker, notices that her cupcake confections have a loyal fan. When Sugar zones in on the strawberry ones, she notices that too.

Sugar is ecstatic, and so overcome with joy that she can only utter a tiny thank you before hurrying home with her treasure.
