Description

The Baker's Dozen A Saint Nicholas Tale is a heartwarming legend about the origins of an American custom. In this story, a baker named Van Amsterdam is visited by a mysterious old woman on Saint Nicholas Day who insists that a dozen is thirteen. The woman's curse puts an end to the baker's business, and he believes it would take Saint Nicholas to help him. As the baker searches for a solution, he discovers that the true meaning of Saint Nicholas Day is one of generosity and kindness. This inspiring tale from Dutch colonial New York is a great way to learn about the history behind this special holiday. The book is illustrated and features a bonus cookie recipe and pattern for St. Nicholas Christmas cookies.
