Abstract

What is the special cake Acchan received?

On Christmas Eve, while Acchan made finger puppets, her mother asked her to buy a cake. When she went to the cake shop, it was crowded with customers. When she finally called the store clerk, the cake had already been sold out. She was so sad. But the cake shop gave her a more large cake. After returning home, Acchan comes up with an idea to give the cake shop owner a wonderful present.
