Mr. Putter LOVES Christmas. He
loves to find just the right gift for each of his
friends. In fact, in July, he starts planning what
he will give everyone. His neighbor, Mrs. Teaberry,
however, presents a bit of a problem. She likes very
unusual things, like coconuts made into monkey
heads, walking saltshakers, and strangest of
all.....fruitcake! So Mr. Putter sets out to make
his dear friend a memorable gift, a homemade cake
that is light, airy, and won't break her foot if
dropped. There is just one small problem....Mr.
Putter can't bake!
Your beginning reader will laugh
their way through this book. This sweet story of
giving from the heart is told in such a tongue and
cheek manner, that the grownups end up laughing just
as much as the kids!
