A fascinating true tale about an immigrant baker who helped feed soldiers during the Revolutionary War and even persuaded some British soldiers to defect. The illustrations match the text perfectly, with images that resemble gingerbread cookies. The ending could've been more clear because the author made it seem like the baker played an integral part in winning the war. Luckily, an note at the end provides more information. Great read aloud to introduce elementary students to a little bit of American history and prompt discussion about the difference one person can make.
