Walter the Baker by Eric Carle (Illustrator)
Walter the Baker is famous for his breads, rolls, cookies, tarts, and
pies. The Duke and Duchess especially love his warm sweet rolls, delivered
fresh to their castle every morning. But one day the cat spills the milk,
and Walter is forced to serve the Duke and Duchess rolls made with water.
After one bite the Duke throws down his roll in disgust and summons Walter
to the castle. He threatens to banish the baker unless he can take the
same dough and make a good-tasting roll that the rising sun can shine
through three times. Talented Walter with a bit of good luck is
able to satisfy the Duke's challenge and create a new treat for the entire
world to enjoy. It teaches children, that with a little work, their mistakes
can be made right.
