Plot

Ever wondered where the term "baker's dozen" came from? Here's an unusual holiday tale drawn from an old folk tradition that answers that question. Aaron Shepard creates a world where it is not unusual for Saint Nicholas himself to make an appearance and for Christmas magic to appear in the form of holiday cookies. In old New York, a local baker learns an important lesson in generosity and so will young readers as they pore over the richly illustrated pages of this timeless, unforgettable book.
