Raspberries!
by Jay O’Callahan, Illustrated by: Will Moses
Simon was born to bake. His treats are so famous that people come from far and wide to taste them. But his whole world turns upside down when his bakery closes. Until, almost magically, he meets a young girl who remembers Simon’s many kindnesses and gives him some raspberry seeds. But when Simon grows the seeds into berries and bakes them into tarts something magical happens…and, before long, everyone in town has to try one.
